This has me feeling Christmassy—in every sense. A gem of a book. If you want to spread festive joy, read this and share it widely!
We all know about the Christmas tree, the turkey, the tinsel, the presents and even the carol services. But what’s it all really about? This book leads past all the trappings to the astonishing truth of the authentic Christmas story. A great little book to give to your friends, family and neighbours or at church events and carol services this December.
Christmas is a highlight of my year. It’s always sad when it’s over. But what if Christmas also has the power to transform our normal lives into something super-normal? This book unlocks this power, showing anyone who has any interest in faith how the miracle of Christmas doesn’t end with the birth of Jesus but can continue to work its joy in our lives today.
A wonderful book that connects so many of our contemporary Christmas experiences to the story of the very first Christmas. A must-read for anyone seeking to understand the deeper meaning of Christmas or for those of us have become a little too familiar with the story and need to rediscover the wonder of it all.
While engaging with some of our favorite holiday traditions, Andrew invites us to consider the plausibility of the story of the first Christmas. He explores the historical narratives of Jesus as Light, Savior and King while sharing family stories that make you feel like a guest in the Wilson home for the holidays. What a fun and helpful read!
