“[A] great gift book . . . Keller achieves his pastoral goal of teaching Christmas’ most important message—‘God alone has the life, truth, and joy that we lack and cannot generate ourselves’—and in doing so, provides solace for those who seek it.” —Publishers WeeklyPraise for Timothy Keller and his other books:“Superb . . . we should be grateful to Keller for his wisdom, scholarship, and humility.” —The Gospel Coalition“Tim Keller’s ministry in New York City is leading a generation of seekers and skeptics toward belief in God.
