El Propósito de Celebrar la Navidad

Escrito por Rick Warren

Narrado por George Bass

¿Por qué tiene tanta importancia la Navidad?

Si uno se pone a pensarlo bien, es increíble que el nacimiento simple y sin pretensiones de un bebé campesino, hace más de dos mil años en el Medio Oriente, pueda causar embotellamientos cada mes de diciembre en sitios como la ciudad de Nueva York, Tokio, y Río de Janeiro.

La noche en que nació Jesucristo en Belén, un pequeño grupo de pastorcillos pobres cuidaban tranquilamente a sus rebaños de ovejas mientras contemplaban las estrellas. Era una noche idéntica al de las otras mil noches, pero lo que estaba a punto de suceder transformaría no sólo sus vidas sino a las de millones de otras personas. El mundo nunca sería igual.

No importa qué religión practicas, necesitas saber cómo los tres propósitos que tiene la Navidad resolverán tus tres necesidades más grandes.

Cuando entiendas y recibas los regalos de Navidad que Dios te ofrece, verás cómo se transformará tu propia vida...¡para siempre!

Tens of millions of copies of Pastor Rick’s books have been published in 200 languages.

Writing: 4.5Theme: 5.0Content: 5.0Language: 5.0Overall: 4.5; wonderful compact book that gets straight to the point and gives the true meaning and purpose of Christmas; Mr. Warren gives a precise salvation presentation, which is ultimately what the Christmas season is all about- the Greatest Gift that has (or ever will) be given, Jesus Christ. What will you will do with Jesus Christ? Highly recommend.***November 24, 2014***

I read this book as a nod to Rick Warren's influence. By all accounts I've read, he's done an incredible job of growing his California-based ministry, but his upcoming gig at Obama's inauguration as caused some controversy. This is the first of Warren's books that I read.

It was a pretty quick read, which was nice. I picked it up yesterday afternoon and finished it before bed (after going out for a holiday dinner and celebration).

I was looking for a book that would put me more into the "spirit" of Christmas, but this one was "preachier" than I was looking for in a book about the holiday. I shouldn't be surprised, based on what little I know about the author, but I was, a little. The message of salvation seemed a bit strong for a book about Christmas.

I did appreciate the messages of peace and gratitude in the book, as well as the brief intro into the "Purpose-Driven Life" philisophy that propelled Rick Warren into broader-based fame.

This is a wonderful book to give to a searching unbeleiver. It surpurbly explains the whys and wherefores of Christmas for adult and child, believer and doubter. This book is well worth the purchase price!
