Prepare Him Room
Description
Guide your family into the heart of Christmas with this gospel-focused, four-week Advent curriculum.
Prepare Him Room by children's best-selling author Marty Machowski takes a biblical, theological approach to the Old Testament promises and New Testament fulfillment in Christ in a way kids can understand.
A tool for families hoping to focus on Jesus during the Christmas season, readers will have the resources necessary to counter the commercialism, materialism, and sentimentalism our culture celebrates each Christmas. Prepare Him Room includes an original Christmas short story and thirteen family Advent devotions-three for each of the four weeks of Advent and one more for Christmas-plus crafts, activities, and carols to sing together.
Prepare Him Room will change the way you and your family celebrate Christmas. The corresponding devotional, Prepare Him Room: Celebrating the Birth of Jesus Family Devotional is sold separately. A companion CD, Prepare Him Room: Celebrating the Birth of Jesus in Song, is also available through Sovereign Grace Music. Challenge your family to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas.
