How God Used a Thunderstorm by Joel Beeke and Diana Kleyn
From the Publisher:
The mountains are dark and looming as the lightening splits across the sky. The forest offers shelter and in the distance the traveler spots a lamp. Rushing towards the door, he doesn’t realize that someone has planned this journey. There is a woman in the house who needs to hear about her loving Savior, Jesus Christ. God has sent the traveler to tell her about Himself. There are lots of stories in this book. Read about the thunderstorm, hidden treasure, and a Bible in a suitcase as well as many other stories about how we should live for God and read his word.

The birth of Jesus Christ at Bethlehem was a critical event in the fulfillment of God’s timeless plan for man’s redemption–necessitated by Adam’s sin in the Garden of Eden. Unfortunately the birth of the Christ-child is also one of the most-distorted events in history. This unique resource was designed by a physician who wanted a way to reach out to non-Christians in his city and help them understand that Christ came into the world on the very first Christmas.

In Celebrating Advent, author Ann Hibbard has created a way for parents to set aside a daily time during Advent to talk with their kids about the spiritual meaning of the season.
Learn practical steps you can take to make Christmas a more meaningful, happy experience for your family. Inspiring and creative family devotions provide a moment of peace and reflection for each evening of Advent, while fun and inexpensive project ideas help you focus your kids’ attention on what really matters at Christmas: Christ.

Through inspirational quotes, scriptures, and prose, Lance Wubbels offers a thoughtful look at how we can unwrap the grace and love of Christ.Jesus: The Ultimate Gift explores the wonder of the birth of Christ who came to give man what the Apostle Paul called “God’s indescribable gift.” (2 Corinthians 9:15)

Once we see Him for who He really is, we are never the same.”
