I just finished a very powerful book. Let me say thank you to Glenn Beck for his bravery in telling this story. I loved the book. It has given me so much to think about. I finished reading it last night and couldn't quit thinking about it as I went to bed. I picked it up again the first thing this morning and read the ending again.
In real life, Glen Beck's last Christmas present from his mother was a hand made sweater that he rejected and threw on the floor. Then sometime soon after, she committed suicide. I can't imagine what kind of pain he felt from that experience as a young teenager.
His message of the gift of the atonement is one I will never forget. The message of this book about the real meaning of Christmas will make this Christmas much more meaningful for me. Give yourself a gift and read the book. I am pretty sure you will love it.
I don't care that he will make huge amounts of money from writing this book. It's a great message that the world needs to hear.

Terri... thanks for sharing... I love good books and especially those that inspire. I don't know much about Glen Beck but I've seen a couple of his broadcasts and I read a brief article about his conversion story! I'll have to get that book. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
