"Before we just take and swallow whole the Christmas baby, that glorious nativity...before we belt out our Christmas carols, and bow our heads over our Christmas feasts, and open our Christmas gifts, bask in all that Christmas glory, we’ve got to--at least--ponder John the Baptist’s question: Is this Jesus the one who is to come, or should we wait for another?
"Sisters and brothers in Christ, yes he is: Jesus is the one...and so we wait."
