Synopsis

Why do we celebrate Christmas? Most children do not know the true answer to that question or why God sent Jesus to live on earth. 'Why Christmas?' is a helpful devotional with Scripture readings, memory verses, Christmas carols and questions to direct your child s heart towards God. The readings, which begin on the first day of December, are Biblical, short, and effective. Colorful illustrations illuminate the events of the incarnation. This book will provide parents with the assistance they desire for leading their child to the Christ of Christmas.

Review

'Why Christmas?' provides an exceptional opportunity for parents and Christian leaders to lead their children through a rich and wonderful discovery behind the miracle of Christmas. I highly recommend this brilliant little book for every child! --Joni Eareckson Tada; Joni and Friends International Disability Center

'Why Christmas?' provides an attractive, joyous, and rich overview of the meaning of the coming of Christ into the world. Parents and children alike will be grateful for the wealth of clear and biblically-faithful teaching this small book offers. To use this book with your children is to give them one of the best Christmas gifts they could ever receive. --Bruce A. Ware; The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

'Why Christmas?' is a delightful little book to use in family worship anytime of the year, but especially during the Christmas season. With simple, colorful illustrations that effectively communicate the main idea of each lesson, this is the kind of biblically-sound, theologically-rich, Christ-centered material we've come to expect from Shepherd Press. I am envisioning the joy of future December nights when I hope to use 'Why Christmas?' with grandchildren gathered around me. --Donald S. Whitney; The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
