Every year we at Christian Review like to “get-into” the seasonal mood by watching Christmas movies and listening to Christmas music. Here are some of our favorites… 30 Christian Artists and 30 Christmas Songs Get into the Christmas spirit with this collection featuring old and new Christmas songs performed by some of today’s top artists including Sanctus Real, Casting Crowns, Tenth Avenue North, Sidewalk Prophets, Matthew West, Hillsong, Brandon Health, for King & Country, Colton Dixon, Kari Jobe, and many more. This DVD pack includes some of the best Christmas TV movies produced in the last few years. The movies included in this pack are: “The Christmas Shoes” “The Christmas Blessing” “The Christmas Promise” “The Christmas Pageant” “The Christmas Choir” “Gift of the Magi” “Christmas in Canaan” “Christmas Comes Home To Canaan” “The Christmas Box” “A Christmas Visitor” Third Day are one of the standout Christian bands of this generation, and this album is a standout collection of Christmas songs. Lead vocalist, Mac Powell, applies his incredible voice to thirteen tracks including “O Holy Night,” “Do You Hear What I Hear?” “Angels We Have Heard on High,” “The First Noel,” “Away In A Manger,” among others. This book contains three short Christmas stories written by best-selling author, Max Lucado. You will laugh, cry, and be inspired as you watch these modern Christian themed Christmas classics. And the best bit is, these movies are a great choice for family viewing! In “The Angel’s Story” we read about how Gabriel was entrusted to deliver a message of hope to a young Jewish girl, named Mary, and how Satan tries to stop the birth of her Son. “The Christmas Child” tells the story of a young man who is drawn to an unusual Nativity scene in Clearwater, Texas. And in “The Christmas Candle” the townsfolk are forever changed in the English village of Gladstone (circa 1864) when an angelic being visits them. A great way to start a Christmas movie collection. Three tales your entire family will enjoy every Christmas! Yes, these movies are a little sappy and cliché, but they always leave us feeling warm and snuggly inside… and at Christmastime we would call that a job well done! 9 CHRISTIANREVIEW.COM 70> > CHRISTIAN REVIEW
