Preparing for Jesus by Walter Wangerin, Jr.Last year this book was on my list to read before Christmas. Somehow it became one of those things that got passed over. That was my loss and I'm glad I didn't make the same mistake this year.
Walter Wangerin offers a devotional journey that starts the first day of December and travels through Advent to Christmas to the Twelve Days following ending at Epiphany. We meet people who played a part in the birth of our LORD. Wangerin offers insight and intimacy with Mary, Elizabeth, Zachariah, Joseph, several others and Jesus, Himself.
This book is one that will touch your heart. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to adjust their attitude before Christmas.
Enjoy!
From my original list to read for the Fall into Reading 2008 Challenge hosted by Katrina at Callapidder Days. Check out other participants and their book reviews!

I read this book a couple years ago at Christmastime and loved it so! Glad you enjoyed it. Your list above for the winter reading challenge looks great, too. I think we have similar tastes :)
