Put the Joy Back in Your Christmas October 27, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I find that I have a more joyful anticipation of the Christmas season after reading this book than I have in a while. The readings and ideas for family activities help put the holidays back in their proper perspective. I gained new insights into Luke and the characters in the Christmas story.
Preparing My Heart for Advent is a Treat for the Busy Christian October 27, 2005 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is a delight because the author recognizes our desire to approach Chritmas with joy and the crazy demands placed on all of that at that busy time of the year. I love the concept of "preparing my heart" in November when things are more calm and then reaping the rewards in December. I strongly recommend this book!
It really is "the most wonderful time of the year". October 25, 2005 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Unfortunately, the way many of us "do Christmas" leads to exhaustion and engenders a certain dread of repeating this yearly event. Ann Stewart's book is a welcome antidote to the pressures women face during the pre-Christmas season. It guides us on an historical journey to experience the Christmas Story through the lens of its primary characters and illuminates the roots and meanings of the symbols, songs, and traditions that commemorate this historical event. It also offers many suggestions that help us to keep Christ in our Christmas and create in our homes a spirit of anticipation and excitement as we celebrate the birth of our Savior.
I love the way the book is structured - 30 days of study in November followed by daily devotionals from December 1st through January 6th.
