It's the most wonderful time of the year...
Not only is that a wonderful song lyric, it truly is the truth isn't it? It IS the most wonderful time a year. It's a season of giving, a season of warmth, a season of family.
But most importantly, it's the season that we celebrate Christ's birth. Though I always try to keep Christ at the center of our family, this is even more true during Christmastime. With everything else going on, it can be easy for that true spirit of the season to get a little lost. I am always on the lookout for great books for both myself and my children to help us keep that in mind. And this year, I have found a GREAT one that I am beyond excited to share with you- The Most Wonderful Time of the Year-
For Christians worldwide, the month of December is filled with joy and wonder as we anticipate the celebration of Christ’s birth. There is no other time of the year that can compare to the Christmas season for both the young and young at heart.
From December to New Year’s Eve, reawaken the wonder, joy, and magic that is Christmas with daily scripture and inspirational readings of stories behind popular Christmas traditions, carols and movies. Enjoy a wealth of fun activities to help make the most of the season, including heartwarming holiday recipes and homemade gift ideas.
With this soon-to-be-cherished holiday devotional, best-selling author Ace Collins will capture your imagination and help to make each day of December more memorable and meaningful to you, and those you love, by shining a light on the real spirit of the season.
Now, I have read many great Christmas countdown/ advent devotionals but I have to say, this one might be my absolute favorite. Now, I'll admit, I've not read through it completely, but rather skimmed through a few devotionals to get the feel for it. I really want to be able to use with a fresh set of eyes when December begins. Still, I can tell you, the devotions I read were wonderful- perfect for getting us into the spirit of the season as the holiday draws nearer. I loved once again reading the lyrics to some of my very favorite Christmas songs and understanding better the story behind them. But even moreso I loved the recipes and great handmade gift ideas! This is the spirit of giving after all and all of these are perfect for giving! Already, I have found several ideas that I cannot wait to try!
I love this book and cannot wait until the first to truly dive into it, and I hope you all will love it too. It is available to purchase now.
