5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book on the Christmas Season, December 26, 2004

This review is from: God with Us: Miracle of Christmas (Hardcover)

MacArthur has written what I believe is an excellent book that churches and families can use for Christmas Sunday School lessons or family Christmas devotions.

A few years ago our church used this book for November and December Sunday School lessons and was greatly blessed and encouraged.

MacArthur peppers the text with the cultural, economic, and social background of the time and shows how the lessons apply to life today.

The book is about 150 pages and consists of 9 chapters:

1. A Christmas Prophecy

2. Knots on the Family Tree

3. Is the Virgin Birth Really Essential?

4. Joseph and Mary

5. The People Who Missed Christmas (my personal favorite - hint: it's not "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Holidays"!)

6. God in a Manger

7. Who Were the Wise Men?

8. Born to Die

9. O Come Let Us Adore Him

Whether used for Sunday School lessons, family devotions, or your own study, the book will bless and will yet be another reminder of what the Christmas season is REALLY about!

Read and be encouraged.

Highly recommended!
