Today
we are going to talk with Barbara Reaoch, joining us from Minneapolis,
Minnesota in the US.
Barbara Reaoch is an author of several books including “Why Christmas”.
Barb is also my sister-in-law, she lived in Michigan before moving to
Cape Town, South Africa, to teach Bible Study Fellowship classes.
There she also worked as a volunteer with the Rafiki Foundation
to train young women in job and life skills.
Barb
what made you write Why Christmas?
With my grandchildren far away, I began to write Bible studies for
them to bridge the distance. I drew my
books, “Why Christmas" and “Why Easter” from those studies.
“Why Christmas” came from “Why do we celebrate Christmas? Most children
do not know the true answer to that question or why God sent Jesus to live
on earth. “Why Christmas” is a helpful daily devotional with Scripture
reading, memory verse, Christmas carol and questions to direct
a child’s heart towards God. The readings, which begin on the
first day of December, are Biblical, short, and effective. Colorful illustrations
by Carol McCarty illuminate the events of the incarnation. This book
will provide parents with the assistance they desire for leading their
child to the Christ of Christmas.
Barb has written other Christmas books as well.
“A better than Anything Christmas” an advent devotional offering a
fresh way to prepare for Christmas.
“A Jesus Christmas” is the second Advent devotional for families.
