Born in Us Today@ the Message of the Incarnation Today

John Davies

Because they are the most familiar of all Bible stories, the accounts of Jesus' birth are perhaos the least understood. Christmas traditions have overlaid them with layers of sentimentality, and we no longer hear their dramatic, disturbing content. With clarity and vividness, John Davies explores these stories afresh, finding in them stirring challenges to our lives today.For all who long to cut through the relentless commercialism of the season and rediscover the wonder of the Word made flesh, Be Born in Us TOday will prove inspiring and unforgettable.

Notă biografică

John Davies was born and raised in Port Talbot, South Wales, and began writing in 2002 when he retired after thirty years as a chemist with BP Chemicals, Baglan Bay. John says that he only started writing for children after his granddaughter Freya was born in 2010. John now has two other grandchildren: Ayla, born in February 2013, and Osian, born in December 2015. John has previously published works with a strong Welsh influence, including Hewl: Stori Geraint Griffiths and Chester to Chepstow, and the children's picture book, Trevor the One-Eyed Tractor. Darren the Dragon, published in 2013, was the first of a popular series of children's books released by John. A further three books have been released since, the most recent being Darren and the Duke of Darkness. John also published his first children's poetry collection, How to be a Dog, in 2014. John intends to concentrate on these genres, as he believes they satisfy his childish nature!
