This year, I am again offering a 30-day large print devotional. Though I specifically developed this to have something to give out at the nursing homes that we visit, the daily readings are meant for everyone. Yes, I know, I know – it isn’t even Thanksgiving yet! But to be able to complete a 30-day devotional before December 25th, you will need to start sooner than you think. The Christmas Star originally was published a few years ago, but this edition has been re-edited and also includes some new material.

Now, in the gospel of Mattew, the second part of the story of Christmas begins with a star. That star led mysterious wise men on a journey and their journey ended with a king. In this year’s devotional, that same Christmas Star still shines and will lead anyone ready to follow, to God’s only Son: King Jesus. We may not feel much like wise men (or women) but the wonderful news is that no matter who we are, Jesus still welcomes anyone who comes to worship Him! This large print book contains 30 days of readings along with a scripture verse, a Bible story, and some of our family’s favorite memories. As you read about Mary, Joseph, the wise men, and shepherds, my prayer is that you will discover how these ageless stories can still work miracles in hearts and minds today!
