Making Christ the Focus of Christmas with Your Family

I recently discovered a few books that I want to share with you that I think could be very beneficial in helping you to teach the message of Christmas to your family.

The first is "The Christ of Christmas." These are a collection of sermons from the late James Montgomery Boice. It is an excellent book that presents the Christmas story in many fresh messages. I encourage you to get the book and read one chapter at a time, and then read the scripture that is associated with each chapter to your family and share some devotional thoughts from each chapter. It will bless your soul and your family and help keep Christ at the center of Christmas time.




The second are some children's books on the Christmas story by Carine Mackenzie. I have purchased "Shepherds Find Jesus" and it was excellent. My children were captivated as I read it to them and better yet it proclaimed a wonderful gospel message and not just a cute Christmas story.


There are others by Mackenzie about the Christmas story that you can find by clicking here.
