This colorfully illustrated hardcover book presents fourteen short daily readings written for families with school-age children. The first half of the book explores the promise of Christmas by retelling seven stories from the Old Testament that anticipate the coming of a King. Children will learn that prophets who foretold these promises longed to see them come to pass but did not live to celebrate the first Christmas morning.
After reading about the promises God made in the first half of the book, families will flip the book over on Christmas morning and spend the next seven days reading seven more stories from the New Testament that show how God fulfilled His promises by sending Jesus. Each day’s reading ends with questions that prompt family discussion.
This devotional will help families take time to focus on the Lord Jesus during the week of pre-Christmas busyness and during the week after Christmas is over.
