Why do we keep returning to the Christmas story when the world is still hard and unfinished?

In this Christmas reflection, Kristine explores the birth of Jesus as a quiet challenge to power and a source of hope for those who are tired, uncertain, or in need of healing. Set against the grand birth stories of empire, the manger tells a different story—one shaped by vulnerability, presence, and love.
