What Christmas Means To Me and Other Christmas Messages

by Mary Baker Eddy

To me Christmas involves an open secret, understood by few — or by none — and unutterable except in Christian Science. Christ was not born of the flesh. Christ is the Truth and Life born of God — born of Spirit and not of matter.
