A Book for All Ages!

For adults:

Each holiday season, children are blessed with two storylines: the miracle of Christ’s birth in Bethlehem, and the magic of elves, and jolly Saint Nicholas. Parents, teachers, and adults often bristle at the hype of the secular Christmas tradition overshadowing the real reason for the season. Christmas should primarily be about the celebration of the birth of a savior foretold. But, if St. Nicholas existed—and he did—why leave him out of our holiday festivities? In Did Jesus Know Santa? , Marianne Allen Chandler narrows the divide between the two most important Christmas characters. While Jesus and Santa had different life purposes, their existence and history prove that they shared some similar hopes for humanity.

For children:

Every Christmas, we hear stories about Santa, and we hear stories about Jesus. But, we never hear about the two of them together! Did Jesus know Santa? What could the answer be? And what does that mean for our Christmas-time?

The book of Revelation tells of an end time—an apocalypse that will wipe out much of the world and usher in tribulation for all who survive. Lives will be lost, families will be separated, and dreams will be shattered.

Sixteen-year-old Davis finds himself facing the grim reality of these horrific events as he and his younger brother, Tommy, narrowly escape a nuclear explosion that tears their world to shreds. On the run and seeking safety, a twist of fate joins the two with Davis’ bully, Bobby, along with his younger sister, Rachel. Despite their differences, they must band together to survive.

Soon, the four lost souls become a makeshift family—the older caring for the younger, each doing their part to stay alive amidst the violence and danger of their post-apocalyptic world. Will they survive the tribulation, or fall prey to its terrible wrath?

However, the wondrous story of Christmas dissolves the next morning when Josh finds himself hopelessly lost in a blizzard. Amazingly, a little plastic dinosaur, the only present Josh got last year for Christmas, helps rescue him.

Mr. and Mrs. Noah just got some bad news: God was planning to flood the earth! They were put in charge of building a huge boat called an ark and loading it with the animals that wandered the planet; two of each kind - one male and one female. Many of Noah’s neighbors laughed at him, but then it began to rain. Noah, Mrs. Noah, and their buddies sat safe and dry in the ark.
