The Joy and Wonder of Christmas (Paperback)

Steve Gannaway's The Joy and Wonder of Christmas offers an invitation. "Come, taste and savor the richness of Christmas." Throughout this collection of poetry, readers are touched by wonder. Can it be true that God has dramatically and personally reached out to us in the gift of an infant son? The Joy and Wonder of Christmas encourages us to experience Jesus' birth from the perspectives of Joseph and Mary, shepherds, magi, and even a stable mouse. With crisp verse and vivid images, the book depicts other joys of Christmas: children and family, snow and decorated trees, gifts and peace-making, colorful lights and tables laden with food. Yet, all is not joy in the observance of Christmas. Several poems challenge readers. They pose troubling questions about the opulence of the season and the poverty of the many. The rich Christmas flavors of the poems are brought together in a closing story. "The Tree He Would Never Forget" epitomizes the joy and the wonder that are Christmas.
