About this ebook

Dr. Chuck Missler, a widely recognized Biblical authority, updates his classic study of Christmas for 2007. He explores the background, and myths, surrounding our favorite holiday. What really happened in Bethlehem two thousand years ago?Who were the "Magi?"Why a virgin birth?What does a Christmas Tree have to do with it?

Each year at Christmas we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.

After the New Year, we struggle to remember to add a year as we date our checks, which should remind us that the entire Western World reckons its calendar from the birth of the One who changed the world more than any other before or since.

It is disturbing to discover that much of what we have been taught about the Christmas season seems to be more tradition than truth. Santa Claus isn't the only myth or legend that has arisen out of this season.

On what "loophole" does the Messianic hope rest?

About the author

Chuck Missler had a remarkable 30-year executive career.

He received a Congressional appointment to the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis and was a former Branch Chief of the Dept. of Guided Missiles.

Chuck made the transition from the military to the private sector when he became a systems engineer with TRW, a large aerospace firm. He then went on to serve as a senior analyst with a non-profit think tank where he conducted projects for the intelligence community and the Department of Defense. During that time, Chuck earned a master's degree in engineering at UCLA, supplementing previous graduate work in applied mathematics, advanced statistics and information sciences.

From there Chuck was recruited into senior management at the Ford Motor Company. Chuck has served on the Board of Directors of 12 public companies and was CEO of 6 of them. For twenty years, Chuck balanced his high-profile corporate career with his teaching commitment to a weekly Bible study at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa in Southern California.

Chuck has written over 30 books, and now Koinonia House is able to reach tens of thousands through its monthly newsletter, radio shows, Bible study materials, and conferences. More than eight million Bible study resources have been distributed in the U.S. and over 35 countries around the world.
