Saint John Paul II is remembered and loved for his closeness to all people around the world. In this book of his own words as Pope, he leads readers through the holy season of Christmas. Reflections for each day--from the First Sunday of Advent until the end of the Christmas season--begin with selections from talks and statements of the late Holy Father, followed by Scripture, prayer, and a suggestion for an appropriate seasonal activity.

Advent and Christmas Wisdom is ideal for those who want to enter more deeply into the mystery of Christ's Incarnation as they prepare room in their hearts for his birth. During this special season, readers can experience the joy of praying with the words of Saint Pope John II.
