As an added bonus, Pastor Russ and Sue have developed devotionals to be used by families to enrich their Christmas celebrations. These are complete with attributes and names of Jesus, questions for discussion, and activities to do as a family to share Christ with those around them. Coupled together, this story and devotionals will enhance your celebration of Christmas during the season and all year long!
The Christmas story told in easy to understand verse. The illustrations are adorably colorful and while my 16 month old grandson wasn't interested (at this time) in the words, he did like the pictures. It will be a yearly go to story as he grows older. Included with the book are ideas for family devotions and activities.
Sue Murray Barksdale has been a pastor’s wife, mom, and educator for over 30 years. She and her husband Russ live in Arlington, Texas, where Russ pastors the multi-site The Church on Rush Creek, a multi-site church. Sue has a BS in Elementary Education from The University of Houston and enjoys teaching at a public charter school in their neighborhood.
Russ and Sue consider their relationship with their grown children and spouses and their six beautiful grandchildren as one of the greatest blessings in life! Their desire to leave a legacy of Christ-centered lives motivated them to write this book for their own family and all the children in their sphere of influence. This is Sue’s second book, her first being G.I.F.T.S.: A Prayer Book for Kids and Those Who Love Them.

What a precious book!
Oh, I like it! At least once a week Gage will choose his Bible to read at bedtime and he is very serious about choosing the stories he wants :) He would love this.
Love the adorable illustration on the front. Must keep an eye out for this one.
Thank you for the kind words about Christmas Time! I appreciate you taking the time to review it and I'm so glad you want to read it to your family at Christmas! God bless you!
