<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Each chapter explores a different perspective on the coming of Christ by looking through the eyes of an oft-overlooked character in the story. Readers will learn interesting background information, discover new aspects of the story, and consider questions they never thought about before.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>Learn Something New This Christmas</i></b></p><p>We hate to admit it, but after years, sometimes even decades, of reading the same Luke 2 story of Christmas, we get a little bored--we lose some of the awe we ought to have when discussing the greatest miracle in history. That's why <i>The Characters of Christmas </i>was written, to help you take a fresh look at the Christmas story by getting to know the minor characters that played a part in Jesus' birth, such as Zechariah and Elizabeth, the Shepherds, and Herod. </p><p>As you slow down, engage your imagination, and enter into the stories of these women and men, you'll see the most important character--Jesus Christ--with new eyes. And with discussion questions and a Christmas song suggestion at the end of each chapter, it's perfect for engaging your whole family. </p><p>Break free from the familiar, and discover something you never knew about the story you've always heard. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><b><i>Learn Something New This Christmas</i></b></p><p>We hate to admit it, but after reading the same Luke 2 story of Christmas for years--or even decades-- we get a little bored.
