Christmas is not a story that begins in Bethlehem. It begins in a garden. It winds through deserts and wildernesses, through the tents of patriarchs and the thrones of kings. It whispers in the prophets and thunders on Sinai. Until it ultimately breaks forth in Bethlehem, when heaven and earth meet in a manger.
Full of Grace and Truth: The Biblical Roots of Christmas—written by award-winning Christian author R. L. Solberg—beautifully traces the biblical and historical roots of the world’s most celebrated holiday.
“This time of year, many believers are quietly yearning for something deeper than the glitter and bustle. Something sacred. That’s why I wrote this book. My prayer is that it helps reframe Christmas as not simply a holiday, but a holy day—full of awe, rich in theology, and anchored in the gospel of Jesus.”

“Some can write moving meditations on Christmas or trace its historical roots. Others can unfold the Incarnation’s biblical depth, explore its hymns, or offer wise guidance for Christian family celebrations of Christ’s birth. With remarkable skill, Robert Solberg does all of this—and does it with an eloquence and warmth that make every page a delight.”
