A Treasury of Christmas Miracles
by Karen Kingsbury
My thoughts:
Joyful, inspiring, and full of hope–A Treasury of Christmas Miracles is a compilation of about fourteen true stories where people were blessed with a miracle, many connected to Christmastime.
“Unfortunately we live with a sense of urgency for all the wrong reasons. Perhaps our time would be better spent looking for the miracles that so clearly exist around us. Especially during the Christmas season.”
Christmas in Winter Hill
by Melody Carlson
My review:
“God allows the rain to fall on the just and unjust. We’ve all had our troubles.”
Krista decided to relocate with her 8-year-old daughter, Emily, to Winter Hill, Washington. She’s taking on a new job as city manager and hoping for a new start. Winter Hill seems like a sweet little town, but Krista soon learns that along with this small town comes a huge annual Christmas festival, and as city manager she’s going to have to get involved. The issue is that Krista really doesn’t like Christmas. Growing up in foster homes, Christmas was never her favorite time of year and only brings back memories or her past. The town seems welcoming at first, but once Krista starts making changes at her new job everything becomes quite a mess, and it seems like moving to Winter Hill may have been a huge mistake.
“Christmas is a time for miracles. Maybe it’s time for yours.”

Lauren Daigle “Rescue”
Lauren Daigle has such a beautiful voice. The first time I heard her sing she sounded very similar to Adele to me. Her songs are powerful.
“Rescue” is one of my top favorite songs for 2019. You can also watch the story behind the song below if you’d like. If this is your first time hearing her, I hope you enjoy it.
