Joy to the World

How Christ's Coming Changed Everything (and Still Does)

De: Scott Hahn

Narrado por: Arthur Morey

What could be more familiar than the Christmas story--and yet what could be more extraordinary?

The cast of characters is strange and exotic: shepherds and magicians, an emperor and a despot, angels, and a baby who is Almighty God. The strangeness calls for an explanation, and this book provides it by examining the characters and the story in light of the biblical and historical context.

Bestselling author Scott Hahn who has written extensively on Scripture and the early Church, brings evidence to light, dispelling some of the mystery of the story. Yet Christmas is made familiar all over again by showing it to be a family story. Christmas, as it appears in the New Testament, is the story of a father, a mother, and a child--their relationships, their interactions, their principles, their individual lives, and their common life. To see the life of this "earthly trinity" is to gaze into heaven.

Christ in Christmas

great study! Very Catholic but good for all Christian's. It brings Christ back to Christmas! love Scott Hahn! Moreys voice was very soothing. Really helps focus on the true meaning of Christmas. Making all the characters more personal! loved it!

the unique apologetics

excellent reading and message, Scott has a way of articulating Truth, and in this book he delivers both to a high level. I learned a lot.

Fantastic Christmas Book

This is a great christmas book. It summarizes in a very concise and entertaining way the amazing mysteries of the coming of our lord.
Once I started the audiobook, I couldn't stop. I particularly enjoy the references to the old testament and how christmas brings joy to out lives.
I have read almost all books from S. Hahn and this is among the very best.

I Love This Book.

In his brilliance, Dr Hahn basically explains the whole of the Catholic Faith through the context of the Mystery of Christmas. His puns are great, as is his use of many Christmas Carols. His real life experiences are also a fantastic means of making Faith & Christmas, among other Mysteries, more clearly understood. I highly recommend this book to anyone & everyone.

Absolutely a Joy

I am so grateful to Dr. Hahn for writing this beautiful work. You have ighnated my joy of being Catholic!!!
