Wondrous Mystery : Daily Advent Devotions
$18.99
Spurgeon was considered by many to be the greatest preacher of his generation and lived during the nineteenth-century revival of the celebration of Christmas in America and England. He loved Christmas and welcomed the holiday season as an opportunity for rest and being reunited with friends and family.
How can Christians properly celebrate Christmas today? Certainly, Christmas trees, gift-giving, family reunions, and many other customs can all be joyful traditions of the season. But Spurgeon would say that the primary way to celebrate Christmas is by faith in the incarnate, crucified, and risen Savior. That’s why A Wondrous Mystery exists: amid a busy holiday season, it is meant to be a daily reminder of why we celebrate that “the Infinite has become an infant” and “the joy of his coming is still in our hearts.”

After being warned time and again to change his ways from a heavenly being from beyond, Percy is about to experience some grave consequences for his actions.

It is on Saint Street where Percy sees the light and changes his ways trough the examples of the most unlikely of souls. We soon discover that things aren’t always what they seem and second chances and redemption just might be closer that we think.
