Ever wonder why the Christmas story includes so many angels? Or who the magi from the east really were? Brothers Ken Petersen and Randy Petersen answer these questions and more by unpacking 25 significant words from the gospel accounts of Jesus’s birth. 
 
Each daily reading is sprinkled with humor as the authors trace the surprising Old Testament roots of the Christmas story’s familiar elements and help you see their significance for today. Every day also features a beloved or lesser-known holiday carol, and a “Preparing for Christmas” section that brings the biblical truths of the Savior’s birth home to your life.
