My daughter-in-law and I were discussing Halloween and Christian viewpoints and wanted to read an opinion that explained all of that when we came upon this book on your website. We had gone to your website looking for books on this subject and were not disappointed. We decided that we needed to educate ourselves on these topics. We were not disappointed in the material. In fact, we are learning a lot.
My immediate thought upon looking through the Holidays book was to purchase several more copies for Christmas presents for my children and families. What better way to celebrate all the amazing holidays throughout the year and at the same time celebrate Christ as a family!
This is a beautifully written book about the holidays. Included is a description of each holiday and practical ways to celebrate Christ related to that specific event. I look forward to using this resource throughout the year.
While I appreciate the sentiment in keeping Christ as the focus during all holidays, I do have concerns over glossing over holidays that are rooted in Catholicism, like lent. Not one mention that it is a Catholic tradition. Another concern is the attempt to 'redeem' Halloween. You cannot redeem evil. There are some really good thoughts, but also concerning ones.
Hi Heidi, thank you for sharing your thoughts. We appreciate your perspective and will consider how to better address these important topics in our future content. Your feedback helps us grow!
We are so looking forward to this time with our family
Love this book for gift giving for all occasions
I liked this book. It had some really wonderful ideas for each holiday on how to bring Christ into them and make it more meaningful.
Book came quickly and is really good quality.
Until I took the time to truly delve into this, I generally approached the seasons with only a surface-level engagement with Christ. After reading this and feeling that tug at my heart, I am now more aware of, and actively acknowledging, His presence in every season.
The majority of this book was very good. Not sure why Juneteenth was included.
I wasn’t aware of that, so I was pretty shocked. I should’ve read the table of contents before I purchased.
Holidays | Celebrating Christ Throughout the Year
I don’t think there’s anything out there quite like this book! It’s so unique and helpful and one that I will keep referring back to all throughout the seasons of the year. And like everything else DG does, it is a beautiful book!
I was blown away at how beautiful this book was when I opened it, but then I was floored at how many holidays were represented. Many of the devotional have discussion questions that are great for helping the whole family think about honoring God all year.
As a kids min leader- this is a great read and a great recommended resource to have in your back pocket! I find myself in conversations about holidays with parents often and this is a great reference point and resource to refer them to, to encourage them to have Jesus at the center of every holiday!
I’ve always struggled with the holidays as a Christian and this study/book is helping with that so much!
Holidays | Celebrating Christ Throughout the Year
I normally turn off all my light on Halloween, but not this year!!! I’m going to let my light shine!! When the children say “trick or treat!!” I’ll say “John 3:16!! Happy Halloween!!”
I started reading it at the beginning and have made it to Father’s day so far and I have really enjoyed it. I like how it is formatted and easy to pick up and read about certain holidays or just as a book.
Was disappointed in approach to Halloween. We are to abstain from all appearances of evil.
Then to Santa or not to Santa… we are as Christians to walk in truth.!
Was hopping for a book that stood on Biblical truths! If I send it back for a refund I would instead I will be throwing book away.
Hi Mary, thank you for your order and for sharing your honest review with us. We're sorry to hear that this book didn't meet your expectations, and we'd love the opportunity to learn more. Please reach out to us at info@thedailygraceco.com, so we can assist you directly.
I like that it includes more than the major holidays, and that I can re-focus each day on an eternal mindset.
I felt this was a lot of “fluff” with not much actual theological content.
Hi Kerry, thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear this book didn't meet your expectations. We appreciate your input and have shared this with our team for consideration as we continually seek to strengthen our resources. We appreciate you!
Such wonderful words about scripture!! Each season there is material that supports scripture
Holidays celebrating Christ in every season
Love how it beautifully connects every season to Christ
Thanks for including Juneteenth in the Holiday celebrations book. It took years for our government to recognize the importance of this day and now all will see the blessings from our Lord Jesus Christ regarding it as well. Thanks again!!
I am very happy with the purchased items. Excited to dive into the bible study. The kid’s books were a gift to a teen who happens to love them. Also, amazing price deals!! Feeling blessed🙏🏼
Upon perusal, Holidays | Celebrating Christ Throughout the Year is definitely perfect, and I'm especially grateful that it dedicates a great deal on Advent.
My only feedback, I do wish there was an entry, or more, connected with September 11th, Patriot Day, because it's crucial that day is always remembered. Never Forget is more than a motto. Because of the timing of receipt, even though after Labor Day, I read those entries, yet they emphasized the heaviness of September 11th because so many died that day at work, (especially if First Responders), going to work, and traveling for work.
For future editions, please consider including Memorial Day, Patriot Day/September 11, and Veterans Day, yet if they don't fit the vision for the book, I understand. I acknowledge that September 11th was top of mind because of the timing of receipt, and how the Labor Day entries had serendipity, in a solemn sense, due to that timing.
Next is Halloween, and I am anticipating those entries! Overall, phenomenal work!
Hi Aliaa, thank you so much for your heartfelt review and thoughtful suggestions. We’re glad that you've enjoyed this book, and we have passed your ideas about including entries for Patriot Day, Memorial Day, and Veterans Day to our team for consideration in future editions. We appreciate your support!
