In Tidings of Great Joy, Sharon Pullen allows us to hear again the words of the prophets, experience the wonder of the shepherds, and ponder as Mary did the angel\'s world changing pronouncement. Your family will grow closer to one another and to the Lord Jesus as you read and pray your way through the daily Scriptures and lessons in this family-friendly devotional. Christians from all traditions will appreciate the author\'s reverence for the holiness of the season and her commitment to Scriptural truth. The daily lessons begin on the first Sunday of Advent and continue through the 12th day of Christmas. They are simple enough for young children to understand but still challenging and inspiring for veterans of the faith. Celebrate Christ\'s birth-and anticipate His return-through this fresh encounter with Immanuel.
