“This is a great book for people who think they know the Christmas story, and for those who know that they don't.”

Description

Scandal. Controversy. Massacres. Mystery... Christmas?

This is a book about the real Christmas; the one that has been lost by being turned into a children's nativity play. The one that's been buried under made-up details about donkeys and innkeepers and kings.

And this is a book about why what really happened at Christmas really matters today—about how these amazing events can transform people's lives and futures.

Short, funny, friendly and easy-to-read, Christmas Uncut retells the Christmas story, and explains the gospel message as it does so. Perfect for giving away to unbelieving family and friends, whether they think they know the Christmas story, or know that they don't; and ideal for giving away at the end of Christmas church events.

We have developed some Christmas Uncut themed promotional materials for evangelistic events. They are free to download and can be found under the 'Look-Inside' link on the left.

An accessible, faithful guide to the actual Christmas story. Let this book help you get to grips with the reality and purpose of Christmas, and introduce you to the person who is at the center of it all.

A great book for introducing people to the real and wonderful Jesus of history_ lots of myth busting, truth and humour ...  That's my Christmas shopping sorted for this year

Kevin DeYoung

Senior Pastor, University Reformed Church (East Lansing, Michigan, USA)

This is a great book for people who think they know the Christmas story, and for those who know that they don't. It's both creative and historical, simple and insightful, fresh and faithful. It's a great book, and I hope it is widely read and used.

Christmas Uncut

Dave McDonald, Macarisms, December 11th 2012

This little book gets us beyond the commercialism and hype, the fiction and the fantasy, to the true message of the historical Christmas. Each chapter is divided into two parts: (1) what really happened, (2) why it really matters.... continue reading

“nice read”

(Review written for 'Christmas Uncut')

Was given this a few years ago but only got round to reading it recently. Thought this was great but it is probably better to say "thankfully" rather than "luckily" (p5).
