Award-winning author and storyteller, John Shea shares a poetic word of hope to help us "make it" this Christmas season.

Whether your "it" is the overwhelming pressure to get it all done, the task of just getting through it, or simply being present this holiday season, award-winning author John Shea urges us to slow down during the rush of the season and open our hearts and minds to how the Spirit is calling us to renewal.

By focusing on theological, scriptural, and liturgical themes--as well as the familiar sights, sounds, and happenings of the season, Shea's poems in Borrowing Wonder become the lens through which we experience the spirit of the season reflected in our own lives. By connecting soul to season, Shea hopes that we will allow the memories and moments of these reflections to illuminate the light that shines in the darkness. Christmas will come. You will make it.
