James wrote to Christians whose faith was under attack. Persecution, false teachings, and loveless actions were troubling God's baptized people. Things have not changed much for the church in these latter days. Though Luther referred to this letter as "an epistle of straw," James gives much wisdom to Christ's troubled bride. In his foreword to Finding Christ in the Straw: A Forty-Day Devotion on the Epistle of James, Robert M. Hiller writes "[Martin] Luther felt that this letter lacked the focus on the person and work of Jesus Christ to warrant much of his energy. Straw has its benefits but is not all that useful in the long run."However, these forty devotions, based on James, will both challenge and comfort you, while showing you Christ in the straw.

What does it mean to have a part in the Cross of Christ? It means to experience, in the Holy Spirit, the love hidden within the Cross of Christ. It means to recognize, in the light of this love, our own cross."

Each of the fourteen stations is interpreted in light of one aspect or event in the life of John Paul II, from tragic losses to physical and emotional demands, his long illness, and the assassination attempt. His lived experience of the Cross is further confirmed by the words of fourteen witnesses who knew him or who were influenced by him. Walk the Way of the Cross with Saint John Paul and, like him, come to know the love of Christ that allows us "to take up that cross once more and, strengthened by this love, to continue our journey.

Soon, with the help of three disparate, late-night housemates, the quest begins to return the Little Red Christmas Ball to his rightful place upon the Christmas Tree before Santa arrives. Along the way, these newfound friends discover and unwrap the innocent gifts of humor, happiness, hope and dreams...but especially the special love of giving. These are the lessons learned by The Little Red Christmas Ball, struggling through this long winter's night, that allow him, still, after all the years to "shine bright and hold tight" even in the toughest of times.
