Either reading the story together or watching a screenplay of the same is a Christmas tradition we rarely miss. We love recounting the midnight visitations of Christmas ghosts upon Ebeneezer Scrooge and the transformation that resulted from those brief encounters.<\/p>\n<p>For the past few years, we\u2019ve listened to an audio version of the book. I\u2019m afraid the inimitable British actress and our dear friend, Miriam Margolyes, has quite spoiled our family with her expert reading of Dickens\u2019 classic. The voices she gives each beloved character make them instantly spring to life, such that my family is no longer content to listen to me stumble through the reading of the tale myself. If you&#8217;ve never listened to an audioversion of this Christmas classic before, I highly recommend this one.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3k7ie1d\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Silver Chair<\/a> by CS Lewis<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3k7ie1d\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/The-Silver-Chair.jpg?resize=300%2C446&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"The Silver Chair and The Last Battle by CS Lewis\" width=\"300\" height=\"446\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-27975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/The-Silver-Chair.jpg?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/The-Silver-Chair.jpg?resize=202%2C300&amp;ssl=1 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>The grandkids and I finished CS Lewis&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3k7ie1d\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Silver Chair<\/a> together last month, also on audio. <\/p>\n<p>This volume of <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2NHhpzV\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Chronicles of Narnia<\/a> tells the story of a hapless prince held captive by the seductive lies of an evil enchantress. <\/p>\n<p>And there he would\u2019ve remained had help not been sent from above to break his chains and free him from captivity.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll skip drawing any political parallels here and note, simply, that if we place our trust in earthly powers to save us, we are doomed before we ever begin. <\/p>\n<p>Our hope must remain in the One who came down from above. Who offers to free us from captivity and redeem us from our sin. Namely, our hope is found in the Lord Jesus Christ and in Him alone.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3s1mbHB\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Loving My Actual Christmas<\/a> by Alexandra Kuykendall<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3s1mbHB\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Loving-My-Actual-Christmas.jpg?resize=300%2C462&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Loving My Actual Christmas\" width=\"300\" height=\"462\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-27973\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Loving-My-Actual-Christmas.jpg?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Loving-My-Actual-Christmas.jpg?resize=195%2C300&amp;ssl=1 195w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>I know.

But not really. I had no trouble loving Christmas, but the first week of this new year presented some real challenges. Ha! <\/p>\n<p>So the message was more timely for me in January than it would&#8217;ve been during the holidays. Especially the part that encouraged readers not to get so caught up in their goals and to-do lists that they miss opportunities to love the people around them. Isn&#8217;t that a good word?<\/p>\n<p>In fact, I enjoyed Alexandra Kuykendall&#8217;s Christmas title so much that I immediately added her companion titles <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3jX2FJu\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Loving My Actual Life<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3bjsEXw\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Loving My Actual Neighbor<\/a> to my reading list, as well.

These 52 devotional readings remind us that &#8220;the God who scattered stars like diamonds across the velvet of the universe, the keeper of every sparrow, the maker of us all, is inviting us to draw closer to him. He is the place where our hearts can go on the hard days and the happy ones, in the highs and lows, when we are sad or frustrated or downright giddy. He is what we&#8217;ve been searching for all along.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3udhZXg\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">The Last Battle<\/a> by CS Lewis<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3udhZXg\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/The-Last-Battle.jpg?resize=300%2C446&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"The Last Battle\" width=\"300\" height=\"446\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-27974\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/The-Last-Battle.jpg?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/The-Last-Battle.jpg?resize=202%2C300&amp;ssl=1 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWhile re-reading C.S.

They faced self-serving betrayal.<\/p>\n<p>And even false Christs. <\/p>\n<p>Yet through it all, they remained confident that Aslan was still on his throne: good, faithful, and never-changing. <\/p>\n<p>It pained them to see Narnia &#8212; the blessed land they loved so much &#8212; divided and destroyed. Yet their grief did not nor could not overshadow the joyful hope that awaited them in Aslan&#8217;s country.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3avV4i3\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">It\u2019s Not Supposed to Be this Way<\/a> by Lysa TerKeurst<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3avV4i3\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Its-Not-Supposed-to-Be-this-Way.jpg?resize=300%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"The Last Battle and It\u2019s Not Supposed to Be this Way\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-27971\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Its-Not-Supposed-to-Be-this-Way.jpg?w=300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Its-Not-Supposed-to-Be-this-Way.jpg?resize=100%2C100&amp;ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flandersfamily.info\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Its-Not-Supposed-to-Be-this-Way.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>I also finished Lysa TerKuerst&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3avV4i3\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">It\u2019s Not Supposed to Be This Way<\/a> last month. <\/p>\n<p>Again, what a timely book for our present age this proved to be! <\/p>\n<p>Are you facing personal struggles?
