Description
This is a wonderful devotional book that will help children draw closer to God through the Christmas season. Meant to be used in December, there is a devotional for each day of the month leading up to Christmas. Each devotional relates back to Jesus and Christmas as it shows the reader why Jesus is the greatest gift of all and should be celebrated. The days in this book follow the same structure, with there being a passage to read in the Bible at the beginning which is then followed by questions about specific verses. The text also explains the passage and is followed by a few thought-provoking questions. Each day also ends with a guided prayer and blank journaling space with prompts for what to write or draw, but children can use this space however they choose. Focusing on recognizing 25 gifts that Jesus’s life gives us, this book is great to use around the holidays as it puts more emphasis on celebrating the true meaning of Christmas. 96 pgs, pb.
Publisher's Description of Better Than Anything Christmas
A Better Than Anything Christmas is the second Advent devotional for families from Barbara Reaoch, author of the very popular A Jesus Christmas.
These daily devotions in the Gospels give a thorough investigation of why Jesus came. In the lead-up to Christmas, families will explore 25 reasons why Jesus came, and they will see that what Jesus gives us is better than anything else we could wish for.
Each day there is a passage to read together, questions to think about, an explanation, and a prayer. There are also age-appropriate application questions, some for younger children and some for older children, as well as journalling space so that each family member can write or draw their own response to what God has shown them.
So why not set aside a little time each day in the run up to Christmas to look at God's word together with this inspiring and innovative resource?
