Are you wondering where that childlike feeling of Christmas joy is? Are you searching throughout your life for peace on earth? Does it seem like the pinnacle of the Christmas season has become the presents of Santa – and not the presence of our Savior? Lost in the glitz of our flashy advertising campaigns, shiny decorations, and storebusting, can't-miss sales, the true spirit of Christmas has been missed by millions, even among those in the body of Christ. All too often, our time and energy are devoted to gifts under a tree rather than celebrating the greatest gift of all: the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. If these worldly situations have left you longing for more, it's time for A Heavenly Christmas. Craig Van Zandt uses a biblically based study of the story of the birth of Jesus, as recounted in the book of Luke, to embrace the true meaning of Christmas. Van Zandt guides the reader to a mental, emotional, and spiritual understanding of the greatest Christmas miracle.
