Christmas Uncut: What Really Happened and Why It Really Matters...
Perfect to give away! Scandal. Controversy. Massacres. Mystery... Christmas? This is a book about the real Christmas; the one that has been lost by being turned into a children's nativity play. The one that’s been buried under made–up details about donkeys and innkeepers and kings. And this is a book about why what really happened at Christmas really matters today—about how these amazing events can transform people’s lives and futures.
Short, funny, friendly and easy–to–read, Christmas Uncut retells the Christmas story, and explains the gospel message as it does so. Perfect for giving away to unbelieving family and friends, whether they think they know the Christmas story, or know that they don’t; and ideal for giving away at the end of Christmas church events.

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“A humorous, piercing and above all truthful book that challenges our preconceptions of Christmas. Carl writes with wit and a real grasp of modern minds to show us that Jesus can’t stay in the manger.”
