About the book
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 reading, memory verse, Christmas carol 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.
See also: A companion volume, Why Easter?, is also available to assist parents in teaching their children about Jesus’ death and resurrection.
Endorsements
"God coming to earth as a baby?! That's as incredible as fitting an oil tanker into a bath tub or a 747 into your garage. No, it's even more astounding! Christmas may be God’s greatest miracle of all and every boy and girl should be able to know why. And 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!"
