Summary: "...the one thing..."
Review: As a dad, I found the book a great read. The authors weave the crazy mishaps and triumphs of their own Christmas and family experiences into practical ideas for a more Christ-centered Christmas. A reminder that Christ came not only to save us, but to be known deeply and richly by us, and that the natural out flow of "the one thing" is worship, and drawing others to the Savior.I especially appreciated doable ideas for outreach during the Christmas season that are not corny.

Summary: Redeeming the Season
Review: I truly felt this was a meaninglful book. It was written with humor and gave great ideas to fit into everyday life. We are all bombarded with stress at this time of year. It seems we only stop on the one day, the 25th ,to really think of the true meaning of Christmas. How great to put meaning back into each day of the whole season without adding any additional stress to our lives. I plan to personally use three of their ideas this year. Thanks to the authors for giving a deeper insight and a path to follow. Thanks to Focus for printing this book.

Summary: Finally, some new ideas
Review: There are so many holiday books out there yet it is rare that one has something new to say. I love this because it has lots of new ways that I have never thought of to destress my Christmas and really making something worth celebrating. But it isn't a cold how-to or crafty book. It is full of funny stories and biblical insights that sort of wrap themselves around some very creative (but really simple) ways to put my family at the heart of the holiday without going overboard. It gave great ideas for sharing the heart of Christmas with those who still don't "get it" spiritually and some super stuff on taking time to worship Jesus and contemplate who He really is and why He is worth all the fuss. Get it and get one for a freind too!!
