Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room


How many Christmas mornings have you found your family gathered around the tree with presents beautifully wrapped and a scrumptious feast on the table - but with hearts that have not been prepared to truly take in the wonder of God's becoming human? Not this year.

Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room, a family Advent devotional from Bible teacher and mom, Nancy Guthrie, is designed to bring your family together during a season that is often too much about programs and presents and simply not enough about Jesus. Along with devotions for every day in December, this resource includes explanations of some hard-to-understand elements of popular Christmas carols and discussion questions that will draw your elementary through high school age kids into the conversation, transforming this time together from a dry lecture into a treasured family experience.

I received this wonderful hardcover book compliments of Tyndale House Publishers for my honest review and we've been enjoying it together as a family since the first day of December. We love looking at the Christmas story in the many parts and reflecting on many aspects we may miss otherwise. How such a young girl must have felt being approached by an angel of God with wonderful news that she would be the mother of Jesus. How Joseph must have felt to raise the Son of God and watch Him grow up. How both of them were hand chosen by God to endure all they would in raising Him and watching Him die for our salvation.

We get a first hand glimpse at the stories behind some of the blessed Christmas carols we've all come to love and enjoy. What a better way to place the focus where it should be this year and every year, than celebrating the true Reason for The Season! This book rates a 5 out of 5 stars and I hope you all get a copy for your family and begin a new tradition.
