Having lost her own mother at age nine, Debby Morris wanted to take her mothering seriously and wanted her children to grow up in a loving, Christian home. This included teaching them about advent, the arrival of a notable person, thing, or event--for Christians, the coming of the most notable person, that of Jesus Christ. Now, with Morris's devotional and activity journal, A Joyful Journey Through Advent: Daily Devotional and Activity Journal for Young Families, Christian mothers and grandmothers will have the opportunity to read with their families special advent Scriptures each day. In celebration of Jesus's birthday, readers of A Joyful Journey Through Advent can share the love of Christ with others, as Morris is doing.
