    About this ebook

    A Chicago journalist finds himself in a small Texas town on Christmas Eve. Lonely and alone, he encounters old faces and new facts…a hand carved manger, a father's guilt, a young girl's faith. The trip into the past holds his key to the future, and a scarlet cross shows him the way home.

    This Christmas treasure, formerly titled The Christmas Cross, is quickly becoming a Christmas classic. With more than 94,000 sold since its original release, this story was also a popular television movie for Christmas 2004.

    The new jacketed hardcover novella format makes this the perfect companion to An Angel's Story, Max Lucado's other popular Christmas novella from WestBow Press.

    • 4/5
      This is the poignant story of a man who finds himself lonely and alone in a small Texas town on Christmas Eve. He encounters the elderly custodian of a Lutheran Church who explains the story of the skillfully carved Nativity figures which grace the front of the church. This trip holds the key to the young man's past and a scarlet cross shows him the way home. This story puts the true Christmas story in perspective; God's love and forgiveness shines throughout the book's pages.
