From New York Times best-selling author Max Lucado comes a
timeless message that will warm your heart.
Imagine a Victorian England village in the Cotswolds where
very little out of the ordinary ever happens . . . except at Christmas time.
This year, Edward Haddington, a lowly candle maker, is
visited by a mysterious angel. That angel silently imparts a precious gift—a
gift that’s bungled and subsequently lost. The candle maker and his wife, Bea,
struggle to find the gift.
And when they do, they have to make a difficult choice. Who
among their community is most in need of a Christmas miracle?
Join inspirational author Max Lucado and experience anew the
joy of Christmas.
THE CHRISTMAS CANDLE is a short novella, easily read in a
short time. I read it in a few hours. It is a bit disjointed as in it doesn’t
flow well. But the story does all tie together. At first I wondered how it
would.
I enjoyed reading this story, it was sweet and touching. A
miracle at Christmas. Who doesn’t hope for that? A minister who struggles to
believe—and then when he is finally convinced to let the receiver
share the blessing with the church, the surprises start happening.
A wonderful Christmas story. I want to see the DVD now.
$16.99 hardcover. 208 pages. 4.5 stars.
