Synopsis

Join Christians Past and Present in Celebrating the Promise of Christmas

Between purchasing presents and planning travel, enjoying holiday pageants and attending parties, it is all too easy for the busyness of Christmas to crowd out a quiet anticipation of this sacred season. This anthology edited by Nancy Guthrie draws from the works and sermons of classic theologians such as George Whitefield, Martin Luther, Charles Spurgeon, and Saint Augustine, and from leading contemporary teachers such as John Piper, Randy Alcorn, Tim Keller, and Joni Eareckson Tada to help readers enter into the wonder of Jesus’s incarnation and birth.

• Edited by Nancy Guthrie, author of the Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament series
• Meditations on Christmas by respected and best-selling authors and teachers
• Insightful contributions by classic and contemporary men and women of God
• Elegant new hardcover design
