Candlelight: The Living Flame
Through personal story and commentary, an exploration of candlelight's symbolism and its affinity to Christmas time. From 2001.
One thing we'll probably do this Christmas is light a candle.
But why? What does it mean to us and what does it symbolize?
Pastors, Ministers and protestors describe the power and meaning of candlelight.
Through personal story and commentary, this programme explores the symbolism of candlelight and the natural affinity between candles and Christmas time; the turning point of the year at its darkest nadir and a celebration of the coming of the Light of the World.
