Book excerpt: Christmas is a time for celebration. We celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus. We gather in our homes as we celebrate the season of giving with friends and family. We celebrate by decorating, listening to holiday songs, and gazing at the brightly illuminated holiday displays.Christmas also comes with a full calendar. The month fills with shopping, parties, decorating, baking-the list is endless. We desire to focus on the celebration of Jesus' birth, but each year our self-imposed plans leave us busy, overtired, and anxious.There is another way to celebrate. On December 1st let's begin our day reclaiming Jesus' promised gifts of peace and joy. Each day we will unwrap the blessings of worship and prayer by connecting with the life-giving breath of Christ. In His presence we will be refreshed by His love and have the capacity to share His love with others.I know it's difficult to find time in our busy day for worship, but, Jesus is faithful to help each of us on this journey. He will bless us as we spend time together, and along the way, our relationship with Him will grow and flourish.

Book excerpt: Ann Spangler believes it’s possible to transform the crazy, wonderful, stressful season we call Christmas into one of greater peace and deeper joy by recovering the gift of Advent.For hundreds of years, Christians have prepared for Christmas by carefully observing the four-week season leading up to it. What’s more, when Christmas did arrive, they celebrated not just for one day but for twelve! So four weeks for Advent and nearly two weeks for Christmas makes six weeks, which is why Ann Spangler has prepared this six-week Christmas devotional.Drawing from her bestselling books Praying the Names of God and Praying the Names of Jesus, Spangler selected six names or titles—including Immanuel, Yeshua, and Bright Morning Star. Each name offers a week’s worth of devotions focusing on God, the miraculous birth of his son, and the promise of his return. In Immanuel, you’ll discover a perfect balance of prayer, reflection, and study to help you open your heart fully to the birth of Jesus and all that it means.
