4.0

This has been a great book to read this past week to get myself in the right frame of mind for Christmas. Going through not just the typical nativity characters helped me appreciate the arrival of Jesus in a new way. I also loved that this book highlighted women surrounding the nativity story, including those in Jesus’ ancestral line. This would be a great book to read during advent next year one chapter at a time and really ruminate on the Christmas story in a new way.
