The Most Wonderful Time of the Year by Ace Collins, and a contest

For Christians worldwide, the month of December is filled with joy and wonder as we anticipate the celebration of Christ's birth. There is no other time of the year that can compare to the Christmas season for both the young and young at heart.

From December to New Year's Eve, reawaken the wonder, joy, and magic that is Christmas with daily scripture and inspirational readings of stories behind popular Christmas traditions, carols, and movies. Enjoy a wealth of fun activities to help make the most of the season, including heartwarming holiday recipes and homemade gift ideas.

With this soon-to-be-cherished holiday devotional, best-selling author Ace Collins will capture your imagination and help to make each day of December more memorable and meaningful to you, and those you love, by shining a light on the real spirit of the season.

My review:

  Ace Collins has done other Christmas books, of which I own a few. His books are always interesting and well researched. When this came up as a book for me to review, I eagerly signed up for it.

 This book is a Christmas devotional, a countdown to Christmas, though it goes to the end of December. Each day has a Bible verse and a devotional. The devotional is followed up with the lyrics of a Christmas song along with a short note about it, and then either a recipe "to feed the one you love", or something "to pamper the one you love".

 I have not run across many Christmas devotionals, but this is the best one I have read to date. The devotionals in it are well done, interesting, and the songs, recipes, and the pampering parts all add a unique and interesting touch.

 December is not very far away, so I would recommend buying this book soon and using it next month to help focus on the real meaning of Christmas and help make your Christmas season more enjoyable.

 This book was given to me in exchange for my honest review.
