Christmas, Theology, Devotionals 

The Holman Christian Standard Bible™ appears for the first time in a Christmas book, looking very much at home with the captivating insights and poignant reflections of best-selling authors Ray and Anne Ortlund. Their inspiring essays, poetry, and touching family remembrances feel as comfortable as a Christmas sweater, yet strike deep chords of meaning that bring the usual holiday customs and traditions into an eternal light. In the end, these brief but substantial readings leave in the heart a hunger for experiencing Christmas (and other special days) as citizens of another kingdom, no longer willing to mindlessly celebrate God’s glorious gift without realizing its significance and sharing its wonder with family and friends. Enhanced by Masters paintings and ornate designs, this full-color gift book promises to attract with its beauty and to linger with its joyous personality. - from Amzon
