Only two weeks from His crucifixion, Jesus has stopped in Bethlehem. He has returned to visit someone important--the innkeeper who made a place for Mary and Joseph the night He was born. But His greater purpose in coming is to pay a debt. What did it cost to house the Son of God?Through this imaginative poem, John Piper shares a tale of what might have been. The story of an innkeeper whose life was forever altered by the arrival of the Son of God. Ponder the sacrifice that was made that night. Celebrate Christ's birth and the power of His resurrection. Rejoice in the life and light He brings to all. And encounter the hope His life gives you for today--and for eternity. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Piper brings a visit from the Savior to the Innkeeper of the Inn where He was born.
A touching poem of loss and grief, and how the Lord will bring a sweet reunion to those who believe with their loved ones.
Harrington's paintings are lovely! And they bring life to the story, making it even more endearing.
Not just for the Christmas season, this book would make a wonderful gift of hope for those who have suffered the loss of a loved one, and especially a child.
This book is highly recommended for individual homes and study groups. I would think the reference to Herod's violence may be a bit much for children under ten, but should be fine for those old enough to understand the story of Herod's baby-boy killing.
I give this book Five Stars and my Thumbs Up award!
