The nativity story is often seen as cute and cuddly and for kids. But thatās because some of what really happened at the first Christmas has been edited out of popular retellings! The full, unabridged, uncut story is full of twists and turns, controversy and mystery.
This best-selling book, now revised and updated, tells readers what really happened all those years ago, and why it really matters for our lives and futures today.
Warm and witty, short and easy to read, Christmas Uncut is perfect for giving out at Christmas services and events, or to nonbelieving family and friends.
This was a very quick read of the Christmas story. It feels like it is written for people who have never read the Christmas story in the Bible or know much about the Christian story at Christmas time. He refers in each chapter to Christmas pageants that don't tell the real story of the Bible in school or church situations, which wasn't as relatable to my experiences. It is engaging enough and some things stood out to me to consider, but overall nothing new for a practicing Christian who has read the Bible and attends a Bible believing church. I ...think it could be a great resource for those interested in the Christmas story as it points people to the Word and to Truth.
This is a handy little book would be great for evangelism and outreach. It would also be good for new believers and to work through with children. It goes through 7 scenes of the Christmas story detailing Mary, the angel, the shepherds, the magi, King Hero, the old man, and Jesus. The author opened each scene with a story about a nativity program which were often quite funny, but then would compare them to the truth of Scripture and what really happened and why that matters. The book ends with 2 āyes, butā¦ā chapters. The first touches on why this ...is not all made up and how other historical accounts of the time fit with the gospel writers. The second ends the book with 7 points on the truth and validity of Jesusās resurrection. I appreciated that the author included the last chapter because the birth and death of Christ go hand in hand.
I loved Lafertonās creative approach and how he contrasted a childrenās nativity play to what really happened at the first Christmas in this short, fast-paced, witty, and engaging read that also clearly presented the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Though I personally took my time with this book and read it as a daily devotional, at 80 pages it can easily be read in one or two sittings OR listened to as an audiobook in just under two hours.
Biblically and theologically sound, I consider Christmas Uncut to be both a great resource and a convicting read and am glad for the opportunity to review it.
Thank you, The Good Book Company, for my copy in exchange for an honest review.
