Cleaning, cooking, and parties are irrelevant when compared to preparing our hearts for Jesus. This is the single most important item to remember this holiday season.
Through daily scriptures, prayers, carols, prompts for introspection, and creative activities, The Christmas Countdown encourages families to "prepare [their] hearts and homes" for the commemoration of Christ's birth. Making an Advent wreath, designing Christmas cards, baking gingerbread cookies, donating gifts to charity, drinking wassail punch, writing a family newsletter, and the many other wholesome projects presented here are sure to become joyful new yearly traditions. What a lovely way to help families focus on the true meaning of Christmas!
