Celebrate profound reform: The Soul of Christmas

Today Franciscan Media shares a quote from Thomas Moore's perennial wisdom in The Soul of Christmas:

"People usually think of Christmas as a traditional and sentimental festival, but not as a celebration of the Jesus vision it commemorates: a philosophy of profound reform. The child lying in the manger would become perhaps the most radical of all spiritual visionaries, showing how to live more joyfully and communally. Many people today feel an underlying anxiety due to world events and the challenges of getting along in a complicated world. Christmas allows a break from that gray depression, an inner darkness reflected in the winter sky."
— Thomas Moore, The Soul of Christmas
