Long before Christmas
was ever a thing;
Long before shepherds
heard angels sing,
GOD KNEW YOUR NAME.
Christmas is about Jesus. It’s also about YOU. You are the reason God sent Jesus to Bethlehem in the first place! Before We Open Presents will quickly become a favorite way to kick-off your family’s Christmas celebration. It’s perfect for reading aloud to the whole family by you, your kids, or even one of the grandkids. Young children will enjoy finding God’s bright star on each page and the whole family will be reminded how much they are loved by God. As an added bonus, end-pages share a simple presentation of the gospel that is suited for children and adults alike and provide an interactive activity for families to do as they read. This Christmas, before rushing into your traditions, lead your family to p-a-u-s-e and celebrate the joy of Jesus.
Add the Before We Open Presents Coloring Book as an interactive way to reinforce the gift of Jesus to your “littles.”
