Sinclair Ferguson, Author, The Dawn of Redeeming Grace "We usually watch the Christmas story unfold from the outside looking in, as we see Mary and Joseph, the shepherds, and then the wise men all arrive in Bethlehem. But what would it have looked like to be on the inside? Katy Morgan’s The Promise and the Light helps young readers imagine what it might have felt like for Mary and Joseph. And it leaves us hoping there will be a sequel describing what happened next!" Courtney Reissig, Managing Director, Risen Motherhood "As the mom of young readers, I’m always looking for books that stir their imagination while also pointing them to the Scriptures. This is such a book! The Promise and the Light is a wonderful retelling of the Christmas story through the eyes of the biblical characters. If you’re looking for a family read-aloud this Christmas, or for a book for your kids to read for themselves, this book captures the wonder of Christmas while retaining the power of the biblical narrative." David Mathis, Executive Editor, desiringGod.org; Author, The Christmas We Didn’t Expect "I can’t wait to read this book aloud with my kids this Advent. As a dad, I love the engaging narrative, alternating perspectives, and fleshing-out of Christmas truths to provoke curiosity. As a pastor, I love the notes in the back that give the bones of biblical truth and historical facts that give substance to the project. How critical, in a world of fairy tales, with many good ones on our shelves, that we drive home for our kids that this story is not make-believe. Katy unveils the truth and beauty of Christmas—both for our kids and for their parents." Tim Chester, Crosslands Training; Author, Enjoying God "Fed up with school nativities and sentimental Christmas cards? Then The Promise and the Light is for you. It’s a fantastic retelling of the Christmas story from the perspective of those who witnessed it first-hand. It’s historically informed and beautifully reimagined. The result is an engrossing tale through which the message of Jesus shines."
