Summary

Let Your Christmas Hope Last All Year Long

If there’s one name for Jesus that captures the whole heart of God, it is Emmanuel—God with us。 No other name similarly expresses the fullness of God’s eternal desire for His image-bearers。 He’s always wanted us to be with Him。

From the bestselling author and artist behind GraceLaced and Beholding and Becoming comes this gorgeously illustrated Advent exploration of what it means to intimately experience God’s presence in our daily lives。 Ruth Chou Simons welcomes you and your family to partake in a season of surrender as you discover the true miracle behind Christmas: that while we journey to grow in our relationships with Jesus, He has already come so He can be with us forever。

Christmas Day is not the end of our celebrations, but the beginning! Emmanuel is an invitation to rejoice in the everlasting fellowship and hope God extended to us on the day of His Son’s birth, guiding us to realize that having God with us all year long is Christmas’s most incredible gift。
