Описание книги

Am I too old to start a new career? For some reason, I am asked this quite frequently. My answer is always NO. I truly believe we can do anything at any age if we have the desire. To prove it, I decided that I still had an unfulfilled dream and decided that it was time that I tackled it. After 50 years teaching and raising five wonderful daughters, I have completed a booklet called The ‘Shopping Truth About Christmas.’ Researching this book has been a new, wonderful, exciting experience. Writing it proved to be much more difficult than I ever thought. I have a new appreciation for all the gifted authors in our world. However, the new way in which books are published on the Internet is a motivating factor for anyone who wishes to write. I chose topic ‘The Shopping Truth About Christmas’ because of the crazy commercialization which surrounds our Christmas tradition really irritates and upsets me. ‘Why do we do it?’ I ask myself every year, so I decided to find some answers. However, my research took me on an earth-shattering journey, which the book will reveal.

Отрывок из книги

The Shopping Truth must not be regarded as a highly accurate historical or theological account of Christmas. Initially, my intention was merely to discourage the exaggerated and stressful commercialism of a Holy Christian tradition. I was unaware of the enormity and intrigue that my investigation would uncover.

The deeper I delved, the more widespread and contradicting the facts became. I chose only a fraction of the material available which I thought relevant to my booklet, but for those interested, I recommend further investigation.

So Herod secretly called the Magi and found out from them the exact time of the star’s appearance. He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and make a careful search for the child. As soon as you have found him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.”

After they had heard the king they went on their way and the star from the East went ahead of them and stopped over the place where the child was. They were overjoyed. When they reached the house they saw the child with his mother Mary and bowed down and worshipped him. They opened their treasures and presented them to Him - gold, incense and myrrh. Having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.
