Let Your Christmas Hope Last All Year Long If there’s one name for Jesus
that captures the whole heart of God, it is Emmanuel—God with us. No
other name similarly expresses the fullness of God’s eternal desire for
His image-bearers. He’s always wanted us to be with Him. From the
bestselling author and artist behind GraceLaced and Beholding and
Becoming comes this gorgeously illustrated Advent exploration of what it
means to intimately experience God’s presence in our daily lives. Ruth
Chou Simons welcomes you and your family to partake in a season of
surrender as you discover the true miracle behind Christmas: that while
we journey to grow in our relationships with Jesus, He has already come
so He can be with us forever. Christmas Day is not the end of our
celebrations, but the beginning! Emmanuel is an invitation to rejoice in
the everlasting fellowship and hope God extended to us on the day of His
Son’s birth, guiding us to realize that having God with us all year long
is Christmas’s most incredible gift.
