Has the real meaning of Christmas become lost? How do you bring the true meaning of the holiday back to the season?
In an era when Christmas has become little more than a frenzy of exhausting and expensive consumerism, many Christians are searching for a way to reclaim the deeper meaning of the celebration for their children and family. New York Times best-selling author W. Cleon Skousen's The Real Story of Christmas reconnects the reader with what Christmas is supposed to be: peace, goodwill, and the story of Jesus Christ.
Skousen provides historical context and a clear explanation of the events, the places, and the people involved in the birth of Jesus--Mary and Joseph, Zacharias and Elizabeth, Simeon and Anna, the three wise men, and the Roman occupying army. Those seeking the Christ Child, for both good and evil, are brought to life with historical context and description. It's the real story of Christmas, the one that has lived for 2,000 years to change the hearts of billions toward fostering true peace on earth and good will toward men.
At the end of the book are the verses from Luke 2 that give the original biblical account of Jesus's birth, a perfect passage for family reading on Christmas Eve.
The Real Story of Christmas begins in a humble little village, long besieged by warriors, with little hope of escape--until one night in early spring when there was born a babe in a manger whose life and mission would literally change everything
From the national bestselling author of The Naked Communist, The Naked Capitalist, and The 5000 Year Leap comes Prophecy and Modern Times, the decisive guide to understanding God's messages and finding hope in the modern era.
Prophecy is not poetry. It is history in reverse.--W. Cleon Skousen
Have you ever wondered what the ancient prophets had to say about the modern world? How to apply the messages of the scriptures to your own life? What the true purpose of prophecy is? Find these answers and more in Prophecy and Modern Times: Finding Hope and Encouragement in the Last Days, a brief but powerful exploration of six millennia worth of prophecies about society today.
The prophets of Biblical times foresaw many of the complexities of the modern era with remarkable accuracy--conflicts in the Middle East and America, the rise of enormous economic and military powers, and the stealthy corruption of nations and personal lives. Throughout history, prophecies have been fulfilled literally, as Skousen writes, shedding important light on how God communicates and how to interpret His messages in today's world. Through years of careful research and with a reporter's dedication to the truth, Skousen beautifully distills these many ancient warnings and promises into one clear, fascinating volume, providing a deeper understanding of the scriptures for a new generation.
Ezra Taft Benson, thirteenth President of the LDS Church, wrote in the foreword, Every person interested in present and future events in this war-torn world will profit from a careful perusal of these pages. Indeed, hundreds of thousands of readers over the past seventy years, including some of the country's greatest religious and political minds, have turned to this book for insight and encouragement in these troubled times.
