"Spiritual beings populate the stories of Scripture. Angels singing. Demons infecting. Heavenly hosts fighting . . . Ignore the armies of God and Satan and you ignore the heart of Scripture. Ever since the snake tempted Eve in Eden, we've known: there is more to this world than meets the eye.
In this classic Christmas novella, best-selling author Max Lucado imagines the spiritual conflict that surrounded the coming of Christ. Surely there was much. If Satan could pre-empt Christ in the cradle, there'd be no Christ on the cross.
Journey back in time to the very throne of God ... and witness firsthand the glory, the wonder, and the battle that took place on the very first Christmas."
"Christmas is best pondered, not with logic, but with imagination.
In the mystery of Christmas we find its majesty.
The mystery of how God became flesh, why he chose to come, and how he must love his people.
Such mysteries can never be solved, just as Love can never be diagrammed.

"The Christmas Classic, Max Lucado's Christmas Cross, is newly repackaged and redesigned, and ties in with a major movie release. A Chicago journalist finds himself in a small Texas town on Christmas Eve. Lonely, he encounters old faces and new facts...a hand carved manger, a father's guilt, a young girl's faith. The trip into the past holds his key to the future, and a scarlet cross shows him the way home. In the movie, the main character, Jack, is played by William Moses (of 'Perry Mason' and 'Falcon Crest'). His wife, Meg, is played by Megan Follows (of 'Anne of Green Gables'). The movie also features Steven Curtis Chapman as the town's minister."
