Cradle of Redeeming Love

<p>In <em>Cradle of Redeeming Love</em> John Saward returns to the mystery of Christ's incarnation and birth. Drawing upon both the rich traditions of the Church and the writings of the great Christian mystics he fashions a work both new and old revolutionary and orthodox. This profoundly moving meditation on the meaning of the Incarnation will enrich any contemplation on the life of Christ. </p><p> </p><p>The subject of this book is the Christmas dogma: the divinely revealed truth of the Nativity of Christ as proclaimed by His infallible and immaculate Bride the Church. It is the splendor of this truth of Love's noon in Nature's night which for two millennia has captivated the minds of Fathers and Schoolmen activated the genius of poets painters and musicians and in even the bleakest of mid-winters brightened the eyes of little ones kneeling by the Crib.</p>
