Hope for the Holidays: stories and Traditions for a Peaceful Season is available now. This book contains a comforting collection of stories and wisdom designed to help readers find peace, hope, and purpose during the holiday season. This book invites you to explore traditions, navigate difficult times, and embrace moments of joy through a tapestry of heartfelt stories and practical advice.
Hope for the Holidays is a Hope*Books collaborative book with chapters from 10 different authors. I am fortunate to be one of those authors.
In my chapter, Birthday Cake for Jesus: Teaching your Kids the Meaning of Christmas, I share the story of how the tradition of birthday cake for Jesus began in our family. Along with the story of this tradition, I also share some other faith-based holiday traditions that my family does or has participated in. I include helpful tips and ideas on how to add faith-based traditions to your Christmas celebrations.
Other chapters include stories and practical advice about Hope for the Holidays when you are grieving, experienced a loss or unexpected circumstance, have blended family faith traditions or are struggling with an issue. A couple of the chapters share how singing carols or the words of the carols we sing can help bring hope.
As I read all the other chapters in the book, apart from mine I was thinking of all sorts of people who could benefit or find hope in this book; from single mums, to those who are grieving, to those who need support in this hectic season, to parents looking for ideas. I highly recommend this book, not just because I have a chapter in it but because it contains personal stories, along with heartfelt guidance and wisdom.
