One Wintry Night

Here, Ruth Bell Graham, the wife of Christian leader Billy Graham, begins the story with a boy named Zeb who is caught alone in a winter snowstorm. He finds an old house where an elderly couple give him shelter overnight. In the morning, the woman tells Zeb the story of the first Christmas. She tells him the stories of Adam & Eve, Noah, Abraham, Moses, King Samuel, David & Goliath, & Daniel in the lion's den. She concludes with the story of the first Christmas, when Jesus was born to Mary & Joseph. The woman explains how Jesus became the Savior by dying for the sins of mankind & returning them to the joy of companionship with God lost so long ago in Eden. The death & resurrection of that baby is the real meaning of Christmas. Illustrated! Leather-bound.Ruth Bell Graham is the author of 'One Wintry Night' with ISBN 9780756763992 and ISBN 0756763991.
