Editorial Reviews

Review

Today many people seek to live their lives "outside the box." Traditional ways of doing things, including the celebration of the Christmas season, just aren't very cool. The Husted family has found the wonder of celebrating Christmas outside the box, and they have rediscovered the real joy of the birth of Jesus. This book is both a testimonial to their experience and a "how-to" manual for others to experience the wonderful joy of Christmas Out of the Advent Box.

Wow- Christmas out of the Advent Box! What a great new resource for putting Jesus at the center of Christmas. Over the years I have watched this family keep Jesus as the center of everything they do. This book is a reflection of their passion for Christ and comes through to the reader as a creative help in making Christmas what it should be. Thank you Ben and Judy for living what we believe!

5.0 out of 5 stars Christ returns to Christmas, May 18, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Christmas Out of the Advent Box: Reclaiming Christmas for Fun, Faith and Family (Paperback)
Such helpful suggestions for keeping Christmas alive for young and old throughout Advent. So easy to customize for the ages of our children. We've used this book as a guideline for the last couple of Christmases and it truly makes the season a joy when the focus is on the Christmas child.

2.0 out of 5 stars Purchased 30 for a group of Women Ministry leaders, March 16, 2011
This review is from: Christmas Out of the Advent Box: Reclaiming Christmas for Fun, Faith and Family (Paperback)
Honestly-The graphic on the cover and write up by the publisher of the book was better than the content, for me. What I was looking for was a book that 30 Women's Ministry Leaders could take and use to program with during the Advent Season. This is more for family who is "putting together" (really- from scratch- creating a wooden Advent box...) a family celebration. So- we were not the intended audience. We did, however use some of the ideas at the end of each chapter to use as illustrations of the season's truths.
