Description
Excerpt from When the King Came: Stories From the Four Gospels
Once upon a time there was a Year One. Strangely enough, it was not the beginning of the years. The world was already very Old nobody knows how Old. People had been living on the earth, time out of mind, in mighty nations, fighting great battles and building great cities. But somehow, every thing seemed to begin over again that year, because that was when the King came. And we have taken it ever since as the most important Of all dates. When we say that this present year is Nineteen-hundred - and something, we mean that the Year One was just so many years ago.
It is always to be remembered about that year that one of its days was Christmas Day.
