For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6
I love Christmas season. Even with the tumult going on around the world, hope cannot be taken from us. By celebrating Jesus’ birth, we’re reminded that we do have a Savior. In our broken world, our messy lives, our tragedies and tears, we always have hope.
In my novel, CHAIN OF MERCY, that’s a lesson both the hero and heroine need to learn. Both are broken, both have made terrible choices, and both struggle to find hope with the mess they’ve made of their lives. Through Christ, they eventually find that hope.
My prayer this Christmas is that, no matter what’s going on in your life, you’ll look to the One who was born for you. Who loved you so much, He died for you! And then He arose, leaving your sins behind, washing you white as first-fallen snow!
Have a joyous Christmas!
About Chain of Mercy ~
A devastating argument
One reckless decision
An unforgivable sin
Manhattan businessman Richard Brooks was at the top of the world, drunk with success, wealth, and women until one disastrous evening, when his world came crashing down.
Richard flees to Minneapolis where he repairs ancient boilers instead of solving corporate problems, and he’s determined to live the solitary life he now deserves …
Chained to his guilt. Blending in with the gray. No luxuries in sight.
But Executive Sheila Peterson has other plans for the handsome custodian. Richard appears to be the perfect match for the no-strings-attached romance she’s after, but she soon discovers that he’s hiding more than the designer suits in his closet.

Awesome !!! Much needed inspirational book.
Thanks for stopping by, Chriselle!
I would be celebrating with my whole family. I love them, I want them to be with me every single Christmas 🙂
I know exactly what you mean–Christmas is a time for family. 🙂

We will be celebrating Christmas at home with our daughters (praying that our son is given the opportunity to call home).
Oh, I hope he’s able to call? Is he in the military?
with family
The Best way to celebrate!
This sounds like a wonderful book, and I will get to spend both Christmas Eve day and Christmas Day with members of my family, as well as some dear friends who have no family close around.
How wonderful to open your home to those beyond family! Hope you have a very joyous Christmas!
We will be celebrating Christmas with food, family, and fun. Our local grocery store will be furnishing the food, so I don’t have to cook and we will be eating off the fine china, Chinet, that is. Christmas is spending time with family and not in the kitchen.
That sounds perfect, Janet. 🙂 Purchasing your meal already prepared has got to take a lot of stress off the day, as will serving on Chinet. Enjoy your holiday!
