Let the message of God’s Love that sent Jesus as a baby boy in Bethlehm be a treasure in your heart that is pondered and written about!

Time to Ponder These Things in Your Heart

Sometimes it can be hard during the Christmas season to drink deeply of the true message of Christmas amid all the hustle and bustle of the season.

This journal provides focus on the Christmas story through Scripture, art, and Christmas carols.

Christmas Thoughts Pages

As we think about the Christmas story that God so loved the world, He gave His Only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him will not perish, but have everlasting life, many thoughts will come to your mind. It’s great to journal those thoughts so you can look back at them in the future to be inspired and encouraged in your faith.

Christmas Prayers Pages

As we think about the greatest gift ever given—Eternal Life through Jesus Christ—it leads us to thank, praise, worship, and pray to our God!

Have you ever written your prayers down? You can do this on the Christmas Prayer Pages.
