It's Christmastime! You know what that means? Christmas trees, cookies, hot cocoa, and gifts? Well, yes. But it's so much more. By taking our cues from the broader culture, we risk trading the extraordinary for the ordinary and missing out on the most wonderous and meaningful aspects of the Christmas Season.

When Ordinary Meets Extraordinary explores what happens when ordinary people encounter the infinite, the perfect, the extraordinary incarnate God. We'll discover the responses of Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds, Simeon, the Magi, and others, as they play their part in Jesus' arrival. Along the way, you'll be invited to consider your own response to an encounter with the extraordinary Jesus.

Filled with historical background and insights that bring the Christmas story to life in new and interesting ways, this is a book to be savored during Advent. Read it in front of a warm fire or aloud to the whole family. You're sure to discover a new perspective and appreciation for Christmas by walking in the footsteps of those who experienced Jesus' arrival firsthand.
