Synopsis

Advent is one of the busiest and most commercialized times of the year. The weeks leading up to Christmas are packed full of shopping, gift giving, recitals, parties, holiday movies, and more. It's easy to get lost in the rush of the season and completely miss the reason for the celebration. How can Christian families keep the focus of their celebration on the birth of Jesus Christ when so much else clamors for attention? This book can help! Christmas Traditions through the Lens of Scripture is an advent book like no other. For each day of December leading up to Christmas Day, author Marissa Barbee looks at one common element of traditional Christmas celebrations and finds a scriptural tie-in, even for those elements rooted in secular elements. From Christmas trees, candy canes, stars, and decorations to Santa Claus and his reindeer, Marissa helps parents teach their children to look for Jesus in the unexpected details. Each entry includes a "Digging Deeper" listing of related Scripture to boost the day's reading into a true Bible study. Full-color illustrations, created by Marissa's own daughter, enhance this engaging Bible study and are repeated in the back of the book, which may be cut out and used for an advent calendar.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Marissa Barbee finds joy in the parables and analogies of scripture, from the story of the potter and the clay found in Jeremiah to that of the salt and light of the world in the Gospels. Analogies have always played an important part in how Marissa understands, processes, and explains things. Over her many years of parenting Marissa has used everyday items, decorations, and sights to teach spiritual lessons to her children, pointing them to Christ every day through the everyday things around them. She now shares these modern day parables with you to encourage and strengthen your faith and to help you find Christ in the every day. Marissa and her husband, Scott, have raised their nine children in Colorado and together they savor every moment with their ever expanding family.
