Enchanted Excurse

Disclosure: I received Christmas A Gift For Every Heart by Charles F. Stanley complimentary from Family Christian. Provided that I give an honest response. 

First thing I have to mention about this book is, how BEAUTIFUL the photography is. I could just stare at each of the pictures every day. Also it would be great to set out as decor every Christmas season. You never know, you may have that one friend visiting that sees it and thinks to themselves, "I just might read this." It might be something they were needing to read all along. 

Stanley talks about how his Christmases were when he was growing up. It made me remember mine. I do believe some of my favorite parts of Christmas were the wrapping paper, decorations, the family get together's, and of course the toys. My one favorite thing to do was to play in the Christmas tree with my dolls and certain Christmas ornaments. The tree is one of my favorite decorations around the Christmas season. I just love the beautiful twinkling lights. 

The author also gets into how this season can be so hectic, and with all the worry about what to get your parents or what to get your siblings. It can be a stressful time of year. But sadly we are missing the true reason for the celebration of Christmas, which is Christ himself. He talks about Mary's birth to Jesus and he reminds us of the main gift we should celebrate. Jesus and his sacrifice to save us. I enjoyed reading this book and i'm going to find a place to set it out from now on for Christmas's to come. Also to remind myself to read it every Christmas, so that I do not get so tied up into the stresses of the presents and gifts. What I found as an extra bonus in this book is, at the end of every chapter he has a few scriptures and even a Christmas song that you can read. (or sing in your head like I did, because it is hard to read a song without singing it) This book is very easy to read and would also be a great Christmas gift to give this year.
