Max Lucado, as always amases everyone who appreciate his honest, piercing Word of God. In the beginning of reading his work, I got intrigued to finding someone who resembled my best honoured man of God, Charles Spurgeon. At that time years ago, I didn't know at first that Max was a young man of this age! Because of Bethlehem, just like almost all his writing, is infectious in the way that it draws one closest to God. You simply cannot pick up any of his books and want to put it down before it's out read. I tend to be drawn in the exact environment of the Bible text, depending on the subject matter of the book biblically. Two hours are long enough to read, digest, reflect, meditate and enjoy Because of Bethlehem! I am daily reminiscing on the Manger which takes me right through to the cross! A WONDERFUL BOOK TO MAKE ONE CONTINUE CARRYING HIS CROSS AND FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST!

this is the best work I have read, I laughed, I cried and I contemplated the wonder of Christmas through the authors eyes! Bravo

I am almost all done. I gave it 5 stars because I loved it and letting my friends read it after I get done with it. it does meet my expectations because Jesus is the only one on earth. the value of the book was good.

I loved this book because it takes you back to what Christmas is really about. Its not the hustle and bustle of the commercialism we see that starts in August now, its about the Birth of our Lord ans Savior Jesus Christ. It tells us that on that day hope came to us as God came down to us in the flesh.

Really enjoyed this latest work from Lucado. Well written with how to apply the truths from Jesus' birth to our everyday life. I didnt even realize it had a devotional at the back, which I will do next year.
