The Mystery of the Incarnation

Cardinal Schönborn presents a clear theological framework, aligning his reflections with the sections of the Creed and examining the cultural and artistic representations of Christmas. He emphasizes the importance of choosing faith in Christ as a guiding path, contrasting it with a more self-centered search for meaning. The meditations invite readers to connect deeply with the essence of Christmas amid contemporary commercial distractions.
