Tomorrow and Tomorrow: Christmas Faith

by Michael Novak

Some will write of Christmas this year as the feast of the Prince of Peace. Yet what we should be careful about is the sort of Prince He is, and the sort of peace He brings.

The infant born in the cowshed in Bethlehem was no more a Prince of this world than the faith He brought was intended to bring the peace of this world. He did not mean by peace what the world means by peace.
