We’re all intimately acquainted with the details of the Christmas narrative, right? Who doesn’t know of the startling announcement to young Mary, the Magi, the Bethlehem stable, and the shepherds keeping watch over their flocks by night? Yet, as David A. Holland reveals in this eye-opening new devotional, there is meaning, inspiration, life-transforming hope in these events that most believers have never seen. Like its predecessor devotional, Praying Grace: 55 Meditations and Declarations on the Finished Work of Christ, each day of this devotional illuminates a scripture or passage in a fresh and memorable way, leading readers to a deeper, fuller appreciation of all Christ accomplished for them, and of who they are in Him. Each day’s entry closes with a declarative prayer that trains believers in a profoundly powerful yet underappreciated form of praying—prayer by Word-based proclamation. Readers will discover: Why the familiar titles Wonderful, Counselor, and Prince of Peace don’t mean what we’ve assumed. What sign in the heavens the Wise Men may have seen, and how it may reveal the date of Jesus’ birth. What the miracle pregnancy of Mary’s cousin, Elizabeth, reveals about “slaying the giants” in your life. Key overlooked insights from the Christmas narrative that help you: rest in God’s faithfulness; overcome adversity; embrace and experience God’s good promises; and fall deeper in love with Jesus.
When her grandmother takes in a stranded family at Christmas, Grace is reluctant to share her favorite holiday with strangers, even though the visiting family includes a "real live ballerina." Full color.

When the season brings a chill, nothing warms the heart or elevates the spirits like a new novel by Anne Perry, whom the Chicago Sun-Times calls “the most adroit sleight-of-hand practitioner since Agatha Christe.” Perry’s gifts are on full display in A Christmas Grace–a hope-filled tale of forgiveness that is rich with mystery and intrigue. With Christmas just around the corner, Thomas Pitt’s sister-in-law, Emily Radley, is suddenly called from London to be with her dying aunt. Leaving her husband and two children behind, Emily makes the long journey to an all-but-forgotten town in the county of Connemara, on the western coast of Ireland. She soon discovers that a tragic legacy haunts the once closeknit community. Violent storms ravage the coast and keep alive painful memories of an unsolved murder and unsettling fears that a killer may still live among the residents of the lonely Irish town. Determined to lighten her aunt’s heart and help the troubled community, Emily sets out to unmask the culprit. When a lone shipwreck survivor washes up onshore, he brings with him not only the key to solving the terrible crime but the opportunity for the townspeople to make peace with the past–and with one another.
A collection of three novellas celebrating the beauty of Christmas at Grace Chapel Inn. Snow is falling, carols are playing, and the Christmas spirit is settling over the small town of Acorn Hill. Grace Chapel Inn, the gracious Victorian bed-and-breakfast run by the Howard sisters, is ready to welcome you home for the holidays. As the three Howard sisters gather around the fire on Christmas Eve, they reminisce about their favorite Christmas memories. Louise shares about one snowy Christmas in 1951 when the young Howard sisters, visiting their newlywed Aunt Ethel's farm with their mother and father, witnessed the birth of a lamb on a snowy Christmas Eve. Alice talks about the year when she got stuck running the children's Christmas musical at Grace Chapel and couldn't have done it without the help of her sisters. And Jane reminisces about the year, just after the sisters all moved home and opened Grace Chapel Inn, that she organized a Christmas cookie drive for shut-ins that ended up teaching the whole town a lesson about generosity.
