Star of Wonder: An Advent Devotional to Illuminate the People, Places, and Purpose of the First Christmas - Hardcover

The Christmas season has been so distorted by man-made traditions and commercialization that we are losing sight of the gritty and miraculous truth of that first Christmas--and wonder is being replaced with want.

Weaving beautiful storytelling with forgotten and overlooked biblical truth, bestselling author Angela Hunt takes your family on a visceral journey to learn more about the places, people, prophecies, and purpose of Christmas. Each of the engaging twenty-five devotions includes Scripture, insights, historical facts, personal application, and family activities that give you new "I didn't know that!" glimpses behind the traditional elements of the nativity.

Come rediscover the simple reality of that first Christmas, how the people really lived, and how the characters of the nativity actually coped with the miraculous, and often risky, events. You and your children will experience Christmas in a new light, creating lasting holiday memories and tasting the wonder of that ordinary night so long ago.
