Description

Child in the Manger, The True Meaning of ChristmasWhat is Christmas? For many it is a time for holidays, parties, family gatherings, gifts, meals together, music, and special events. For others it can mean unwanted pressure, an increased sense of loneliness, family squabbles, and crowded shops. For those living in the Northern Hemisphere, Christmas takes place at the onset of winter with its cold weather and short days. There are more incidents of depression at Christmas time than at any other time

What is Christmas? For many it is a time for holidays, parties, family gatherings, gifts, meals together, music, and special events. For others it can mean unwanted pressure, an increased sense of loneliness, family squabbles, and crowded shops. For those living in the Northern Hemisphere, Christmas takes place at the onset of winter with its cold weather and short days. There are more incidents of depression at Christmas time than at any other time of the year. It is the best of times for some, but the worst of times for others to borrow a phrase from Charles Dickens. But Christmas is a very elusive thing, isn’t it? We may look forward to it. But what exactly is ‘it’? ‘A time for children’; ‘It’s about peace’; ‘It’s about family’; ‘It’s about gifts, but it’s a pity it has become so commercialised’ – these are a few of the popular answers to the question, ‘What does Christmas mean to you?’ But what is Christmas really all about? Does it actually have any ‘meaning’? Child in the Manger – The True Meaning of Christmas sets out to explore that question. When we find the answer we realise that it isn’t only for Christmas time. So these pages are an invitation to explore what that meaning is. And if this book has come into your hands around Christmas time, may it help you to enjoy it in a new way! The birth of Jesus divided history into two major epochs. Until the dawn of our hyper-sensitive age, even the way we dated events underscored this. From time immemorial every day, every week, every month, every year has been described as either ‘B.C.’ (‘Before Christ’) or ‘A.D.’ (Anno Domini, ‘in the year of our Lord’). Even the modern, pluralistic style abbreviations, B.C.E. (‘Before the Common Era’) and C.E. (‘Common Era’), cannot obliterate the indelible impress of Jesus’ birth. For what makes the ‘Common Era’ so ‘common’? And what explains the dividing line date? The answer is the same: the birth of Jesus. At the very centre of history stands the person of Jesus Christ. And he does so because he is at the centre of God’s story.

Gentle, soothing, and perfect for sensitive skin
Scent: Unscented, Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using the Bioderma Sensibio Foaming Gel for sensitive skin for a few weeks, and it has quickly become one of my favourite cleansers. Despite having combination skin that’s prone to redness and sensitivity, this gel never dries me out or causes irritation. The texture is a clear gel that transforms into a light, airy foam — so gentle and refreshing. It rinses off completely without leaving any tightness or residue . What I love most about it: • foams lightly yet cleans thoroughly — removes dirt, oil and even light makeup without stripping the skin ; • unscented, soap-free, non-comedogenic, and pH‑balanced, so it respects my skin’s natural barrier ; • leaves skin feeling hydrated, soft and calm, not tight or dry . In my routine, I use this gel morning and evening. It’s perfect for days when my skin is more reactive — calming without being stripping. Even after wearing light sunscreen or daily foundation, my face feels fresh and balanced post-wash. ✅ Gentle enough for daily use ✅ Keeps skin barrier intact ✅ Effective at cleansing without irritation This cleanser is now a permanent part of my skincare lineup. I definitely plan to repurchase — ideal for anyone seeking a reliable, ultra‑gentle everyday cleanser.

Gentle, Refreshing, and Perfect for Sensitive Skin!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 500ml / 16.7 Fl Oz, Scent: Unscented, Size: 500ml / 16.7 Fl Oz
I absolutely love the Bioderma Sensibio Foaming Gel! I have very sensitive skin, and most cleansers either dry it out or leave a tight feeling afterward — but not this one. It has a smooth, silky texture that turns into a soft foam and removes makeup easily without any irritation. My skin feels clean, fresh, and hydrated after every use. I really like that it’s unscented, which makes it perfect for sensitive or allergy-prone skin. Even around my eyes it feels gentle and doesn’t sting at all. I’ve been using it morning and night for a couple of weeks, and I already notice that my skin looks calmer, less red, and very soft to the touch. A small amount goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a while too. Overall, this is one of the best cleansers I’ve ever used — gentle yet effective, and ideal for anyone with sensitive skin. Definitely deserves 5 stars!
