"40 Days of Christmas" Book Review
40 Days of Christmas : Celebrating the Glory of Our Savior
by Joseph Castleberry
Book description:
Who wants Christmas just one day a year?
Celebrate for forty days!
Do you find your attention consumed by the pressures of the Christmas season—capturing the perfect Christmas card photo, finding the perfect gift, serving the perfect meal, or creating the perfect experience for your family? It’s all too easy to lose sight of what is important.
With daily Scriptures, inspirational readings, and uplifting prayers, 40 Days of Christmas is a devotional designed to help you enjoy three of the traditional church calendar seasons. Prepare your heart during Advent, rejoice in His birth at Christmas, and reveal the light of Christ on Epiphany.
Focus on the richness of God’s presence during this period of fuss and feasting as you celebrate the glory of the Savior. Every good thing you associate with Christmas flows from God’s Spirit, and the Spirit of Christmas can remain with you and your family all year long.
MY REVIEW: What a great way to focus on the true meaning of the season! This devotional helps readers celebrate the Advent, Christmas birth and Epiphany. This devotional gave me much food for thought and taught me many new things.
The devotional reading for each day has a scripture, devotional thought and a prayer to apply to the reading.
I have looked forward to beginning each day with this book and my Bible and will be disappointed when I need to find a new study aide.
I highly recommend this to readers who want to enrich their relationship to God by studying about the Birth of Jesus in their daily devotional time.
I am rating this book 3 stars.
I received a digital version of this book from netgalley and Broadstreet Publishing Group in exchange for my honest review. I was not required to write a positive review and all opinions expressed are my own.
