The Greatest Christmas

Come experience a Christmas like never before —
Come experience a Christmas like you’ve always dreamed of…

So come Christmas morning, you haven’t missed Him.
So come Christmas morning — you’ve unwrapped the greatest gift you’ve always yearned for —
more of Him.

Open up this book — and be surprised!

Watch the tree pop-up —- and be kinda awed that you & your people can be grafted into the family tree of God. Let His wondrous love, told right from creation to the creche, awaken you again, surprise you, capture your heart!

Every day of December, like your own advent calendar — open the booklet with your people & read your daily love letter from The Greatest Story ever told, right from our genesis beginning to our King’s coming under Bethlehem’s star — so your people know the WHOLE GREATEST STORY, from Creation to His Coming, & how His love has always, always, always been coming for you!

And then, after the day’s reading, fling open the one of the 25 advent doors — and discover that day’s Biblical ornament to hang on your very own tree — that will end up telling the grandest Gospel story, from the Beginning to Bethlehem!

This is a gift of hope, of love, of wonder — that all of our hearts long to hear again and again.

This is an heirloom, a Christmas tradition, a wonder for the child in all of us!

The Nester author of the Nesting Place

“I sat in an idle, hot car for 15 minutes in 90 degrees heat for carpool while reading this — and literally had chills.

To walk through Advent with Ann Voskamp is to read The Greatest Story Ever Told written in the words of one of the greatest storytellers of our time.

I read and understood with a fresh perspective.
The Greatest Gift is the most meaningful gift you’ll buy all year. ”

Max Lucado pastor, Oak Hills Church and best-selling author of You’ll Get Through This: Hope and Help for Your Turbulent Times

“Ann Voskamp on Christmas is Monet on sunsets — made for each other.”

“Every year, we, the adults, The Keepers of Christmas, wonder, “Where did the wonder go?”

Into our wonder-dearth comes Ann Voskamp, sweeping into our jaded hearts with her observant heart, engaging pen and her way of opening our hearts to the truth and beauty hidden in plain sight.

Hello, Christmas. Hello, wonder.“

Emily Freeman author of Million Little Ways, A: Uncover the Art You Were Made to Live

“Ann Voskamp shows up with a secret gift for all of us: words that somehow sing, pause, and lift the soul. I simply can’t wait to spend December with The Greatest Gift.“

Journeying through The Greatest Gift will fill you with wonder, awe & gratitude. Emmanuel, God with us.”

Priscilla Shirer best-selling author of Gideon: Your Weakness. God’s Strength.

“Leave it to Ann Voskamp to powerfully and poetically call our hearts to respond to the real meaning of Christmas. Her pen crafts a beautiful masterpiece that slows us down only long enough to lift us up to see Him more clearly.

Thank you, Ann. You’ve done it again.“

Holly Gerth best-selling author of You’re Already Amazing

“Ann Voskamp taught our hearts to say thank you for gifts in an entirely new way and now she’s taking us on another intimate journey: Beautiful words, deep faith, and true worship make this book a wonder…”

How to have a Sane, Sacred, and Simplified Christmas

Heirloom Wooden Advent Wreaths

This Christmas you can start a new tradition with your family, practicing giving, in preparation for the Greatest Gift.

Our family’s little creative tradition: a one-of-a-kind, 24-hole heirloom wooden Advent wreath.

Each day we, we light the next candle in the 24-hole wreath, move Mary on a donkey figurine further around the circle & closer to Christmas — and read that day’s epic story from either adult’s The Greatest Gift, or the family edition, Unwrapping the Greatest Gift.

A simple & memorable family tradition to focus powerfully, beautifully, on Jesus… (that also extends into a 40 hole Easter wreath with a silhouette of Jesus carrying the Cross.)
