“May I Wish You a Merry Christmas Right Now?”

“No, it’s too soon,” I think I hear you respond.

Really? Why’s that? Aren’t you concerned to celebrate the wonder of

th’eternal, contracted to a span
incomprehensibly made man

(the couplet is from a hymn by Wesley)? God was revealed in the flesh. Do you know that? Do your neighbors know that? Do your fellow workers understand the implications of that? Do your family members have it in their brains that Christ “made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross” (Philippians 2:7-8)?

In 2016, Roger Ellsworth and I consulted on some writing he had done on the Christmas theme, and together we came up with the idea of The Twelve Days of Christmas–Morning and Evening Thoughts on Immanuel: God with Us. We edited and compiled it into twenty-four readings on Bible-based themes woven into short, easy-to-read chapters, and people love them!

Customization and Special Price Deals!

The project is run in affiliation with SermonAudio.com. We describe the mission of the project in these words:

The Twelve Days of Christmas is a small, easy-to-read book written in short sections. Its aim is to help the hearts and minds of believers to focus on the wonder of the incarnation, as well as to encourage unbelievers to come in repentance and faith to Christ.

This is the third year we are running this promotion, and, to celebrate our third anniversary, we are adding some different covers to choose from, and we are also making the whole offer online so you can choose exactly which cover  or covers you would like to get, and which underlying Bible version quotes should be used in the books you order. Check it out on the designated website, www.twelvedaysofchristmas.net.

I have shared about this project before, and you could read more  HERE and HERE.
