Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The image of the Child Jesus has inspired prayer, festivals, family traditions, pilgrimage, art, and personal devotion across many cultures.But who is the Santo Niño? Is He different from the adult Jesus? Are sacred images objects of worship? Do novenas guarantee answers? How should Catholics understand miracle stories, unanswered prayer, cultural traditions, and the relationship between devotion and discipleship?Santo Niño: Understanding the Child Jesus explores these questions through Catholic theology, Scripture, history, popular devotion, and practical reflection. It considers the Infant Jesus of Prague, Santo Niño de Cebu, Santo Niño de Atocha, the Divino Niño, the Santo Bambino, and other global traditions while emphasizing one central truth: the many images and titles point to one Jesus Christ.This book invites readers to approach the Santo Niño with affection, clarity, discernment, hope, and mature faith. True devotion does not end with the image, the novena, or the festival. It leads toward prayer, mercy, integrity, service, and a deeper relationship with Christ.
