In a style that is contemporary, reverent, and faith-filled, Weems reflects on the mystery of the Christmas season. Included in this collection are 26 new poems as well as popular selections from her earlier works. They can be used in worship, read aloud at family gatherings or used by individuals for quiet reflection.
In a section on Advent, she comments on the December darkness, addressing even those who snarl "Humbug!" Writing of the Christmas season, she confesses, "For those of us who believe, the whole world is decorated in love!" She sees beyond the season's festivities to the day-to-day living and asks, "If Christmas is not now, if Christ is not born into the everyday present, then what is all the noise about?"
