Christmas Journeys

Christmas Journeys is about two epochs in human history -- the biblical world of the nativity and the contemporary world of today. In truth, these pilgrimages are not physical excursions but rather life journeys. Mary, for example, will have to travel from obscure childhood to becoming the mother of the Son of God. Joseph, as he faces the dilemma of Mary's pregnancy, will have to decide what is the 'righteous' thing to do. The shepherds, lowly folk, will be given the highest place of honor next to the baby Jesus. The wise men will be asked to make the difficult maneuver from outsiders to insiders. Skip forward two thousand years to discover the journeys of an unlikely trio: Linda, who had every reason to be happy but felt a nagging emptiness; Stuart, a Viet Nam vet, who wrestled mightily with poverty and guilt; and Vivian, whose battle with grief had left her weary and alone. Together they will discover a new sense of well-being and a rebirth of the Christmas spirit. Christmas Journeys affirms that in good times or bad, one may always find joy along the way!
