Old First Reformed Church in Philadelphia has plenty of stories to tell around the theme of Christmas. This book is a collection of stories from the congregation including - there were goats instead of sheep for the live nativity. A calf once pushed the doll out of the manger and snuggled in itself. A fight broke out at the Christmas Eve homeless shelter. Pastor Geneva Butz takes these stories and finds God in them, lessons for us all. She carries out the theme to show how the people of this congregation keep alive the true meaning of Christmas--Immanuel, God with us--throughout the year.
