All Calm, All Bright: Christmas Offerings Michael R. Collings

"All Calm, All Bright" reflects the many facets of Christmas, from meditations on sacred Scripture to explorations of Christmas in daily life; from the serious to the light, at times even playful; from lyric poems to verse-cantatas for readers and choirs/congregations, and a fable for children on the virtues of selflessness, "How Santa's Reindeer Learned to Fly." Although particularly appropriate for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, the offerings in "All Calm, All Bright" will appeal as well to readers of all denominations.
