Club Review
Hailed by Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world, the bestselling author of The Purpose Driven® Life delves deeply into the origins of Christmas and as the perfect season to welcome peace into our lives.
Pastor Rick Warren takes us back in time to the most wonderful story of all—the birth of the Christ child. As a small boy, young Rick asked his parents if they could celebrate Christmas with a birthday party for Jesus—and the tradition began that the Warrens have upheld for over 50 years. Now, through stirring imagery and compelling personal insights, The Purpose of Christmas honors the promise of this cherished day.
Pastor Warren encourages us to identify and confront what drains peace from our lives. He explains that the way to respond to these “peace-robbers” is to surrender to God’s will and not feel defeated when life doesn’t go as planned. True peace of mind is found by having an unshakeable faith in God—knowing that He will guide us through life’s challenges.
Beautifully written, The Purpose of Christmas inspires us to nurture God’s gifts of love and peace in this world. It’s a great book to give as a gift and for families and friends to read together.
