The Best Christmas Advent Books to Focus Your Heart on Jesus





With December quickly arriving it is easy to lose sight of all the things we know that Christmas is truly about.

With all the hustle and bustle around us we sometimes just need to be still and seek God's presence in it all.

It is a special time to be still, and to soak up in our hearts His word.







Many people read in the Bible leading up to birth of our Savior but if you are looking for something new or fresh to do this year around you might find out list of Christian Christmas Advent Books.

These are not in any order but I hope you enjoy them!

Here they are:

Unwrapping the Names of Jesus: An Advent Devotional - This is an advent devotional that goes through the names of Jesus leading up to the special day.


Most Christians agree that Christmas is all about Jesus, yet most of us spend little time preparing our hearts to celebrate Him. Why is this? Partly because we don’t know how.
In Unwrapping the Names of Jesus, Asheritah Ciuciu leads readers through the four weeks of Advent (Hope, Preparation, Joy, and Love). Each week:
  • Begins with an interactive family devotional that equips readers to celebrate Advent together
  • Offers five daily reflections that focus on that week's name of Jesus
  • Includes suggestions for fun-filled family activities or service projects 
This devotional can be used by readers in their own personal worship times or as a tool to engage in family worship during the busy holiday season. Either way, participants will gain a greater sense of awe and wonder at who Jesus is.

God invites you to be still and let Jesus radically transform you this holy season. Let earth receive her King!

The Dawning of Indestructable Joy by John Piper




The Christmas season is one of the busiest times of the year. But it is also a season of reflection and preparation for that special day when we mark Immanuel’s coming―the arrival of our eternal God in our own frail humanity.
This is the greatest of history’s many wonders, something too stupendous to celebrate just on one day. Advent is a way of lengthening and intensifying the joy of Christmas.


From Heaven - by A.W. Tozer

Tozer’s best reflections on these two themes to help us better appreciate the season of Advent. Each daily reading is paired with Scripture for meditation, drawing our attention to the rising light of Christ.
“I am struck with the wonder and the significance of the limitless meaning of these two words, He came.Within them the whole scope of divine mercy and redeeming love is outlined.” — A. W. Tozer

  • The Meaning of Christmas

Joy to the World by Charles Spurgeon

After dispelling any notion of a religious necessity of celebrating Christmas, he went on, “However, I wish there were ten or a dozen Christmas-days in the year” as an opportunity to preach on the incarnation of Jesus.Slow down this advent and reflect on the birth of Jesus with this 25-day advent devotional guide.
