Christians often find themselves trying to straddle the divide between Christmas as "Christ Mass" and Christmas as a family gathering and a retail extravaganza. In Grace and Peace , Dean Feldmeyer's latest collection of sermons for Cycle A, the seasons of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany are celebrated by acknowledging the secular, cultural parts of the season and, at the same time, they are first and foremost celebrations of God's incarnation in the living Christ.

(Matthew 24:36-44) Less Fear; More Fruit (Matthew 3:1-12) Preparing the Way (Matthew 11:2-11) The New Moses (Matthew 1:18-25) Jesus Incognito (Matthew 25:31-46) Dean Feldmeyer is the author of five novels, two non-fiction books, three plays and over one hundred published articles, short stories, essays and poems.
