MY THOUGHTS.....

Studying the Old Testament sometimes feels daunting but there's now a wonderful resource to aid in your study. The Old Testament Handbook is one of the best handbooks that I've seen! It is a gorgeous, high-quality volume with a durable cloth cover and a beautiful ribbon bookmark, but the contents inside are the real prize. It's filled with timelines, maps, charts, and so much other information to help me in my Bible study.

Why do I like it so much? It uses text from the Christian Standard Bible so it's easy to understand but it remains true to the Bible's original meaning. The maps are easy to use, there are keyword studies, and I especially like that there is an extensive word study section that offers pronunciations and translations of both words and names! The Old Testament Handbook is a wonderful resource that I will use again and again! I will also be looking forward to The New Testament Handbook which is scheduled to be released soon!

I voluntarily accepted a complimentary copy from B&H Publishing via FrontGate Media. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts.

Once Upon the Very First Christmas by Rory Feek; Christine Cuddihy (Illustrator)

ABOUT THE BOOK

Bestselling author and songwriter Rory Feek takes children and families on a beloved journey to Christmas past in Once Upon the Very First Christmas. On a picturesque farm, schoolchildren gather their homemade costumes and props and put on a heartwarming Christmas play for the community. As they don halos for the angel choir or round up sheep for the final nativity scene, readers will be immersed in the greatest blessings of Christmas—the gift of Jesus — and be reminded that we can rejoice together in the wonder of the season. 

Rory's soothing and lyrical retelling of the Christmas story

• is paired with magical illustrations by Christine Cuddihy of a homemade Christmas play,
• is perfect for ages 4 to 8, and
• is a great gift for Christmas, baby showers, and baptisms.

Take a moment to slow down this Advent and Christmas to treasure that first Christmas, God's gift of Jesus, and every precious moment He's given you to celebrate with family and friends.

MY THOUGHTS.....

This new children's book will surely become a Christmas classic! Author Rory Feek and illustrator Christine Cuddihy have combined their talents for this sweet story that shows children acting out the Christmas story. It's a fun and realistic depiction of the Christmas plays we've all seen over the years, with children in bathrobes and fake beards but the difference is that the children live in a farming community. That means that there's a one-room schoolhouse setting, real farm animals that don't always act as they should, and even a few characters that resemble Rory Feek and his little girl Indiana!

The colorful illustrations and the rhyming text make this a book that children will love. It's short enough to retain a toddler's short attention span and the simple text is perfect for beginning readers, but the true joy of this book will come from families reading it together! I love Once Upon the Very First Christmas!
