Christianity and Social Responsibility

An Advent devotion that gives the history of Christmas and Charles Dickens motivation for writing A Christmas Carol which is based on Angland Prayer Book's Advent Lessons

Hearng the Gospel Through Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol is an Advent Devotion based on A Christmas Carol using the readings in Isaiah found in the Church of England's book of Prayer. This devotion briefly overveiws the church's history of the celebration Christmas. The book examins Dickens struggle with Christianity because of their legitimatization of the Poor man's law. Dickens had a message for the church in their treatment of the Poor in A Christmas Carol that I pray the church will hear in this devotion.
