Christmas In My Heart Book 20
This product qualifies towards the free shipping offer.
It's hard to believe that twenty years have passed since the first unnumbered book of Christmas stories was launched in the fall of 1992. Today, when books are out of print in only months, it is truly a miracle that all twenty Christmas in My Heart books are still in print. The Christmas in My Heart series is the longest-running Christmas story series in America, but the author says "that is not a Joe Wheeler thing, but rather a God-thing." Fans and collectors will be excited to add this beautiful new Christmas in My Heart 20 to their collection.
It's truly a miracle in today's publishing world for any book series to last five - much less twenty years! Yet this is what Christmas in My Heart has done. No one is more surprised at this than Joe Wheeler; he attributes the series' stubborn refusal to die to be a God-thing. That somehow there is something about each year's collection of stories that so speaks to hearts everywhere that "completists" (those who have all the books in the series) cannot even imagine facing a new Christmas season without a new collection to feed their souls.
In a world where society appears intent on stripping the Christmas season of the divine reason for its very existence, spiritually based Christmas stories such as these may provide a refuge from electronic strangulation, and an opportunity to read aloud heart-tugging stories incorporating values worth living by to children, teens and adults of all ages.
Since we become our favorite stories, the right or wrong story-choices will inevitably determine our eternal destinies. - Joseph Leininger Wheeler.
