It’s easy to forget that Baby Jesus was small, weak, vulnerable and entirely dependent on his mother. If we miss this in the rush of Christmas, and in our evangelical zeal to get quickly to the Cross and Resurrection, we miss one of the most amazing miracles and wonders of the Christian faith: the incarnation.

In this short novella, Sarah Bacaller grapples with questions and reflections about God, faith and church, and reminds us that there is nearly always more going on under the surface, if we are quiet enough to listen.
