100 Days Until Christmas

Stacked Christmas books on a living room table

Friendly PSA: This is a reminder that Christmas is in 100 days. Better get your 🎄📚 ready!

In my case, might I suggest the following?

I'm grateful to have a few Christmas books on hand to bring me into the season. I'm also looking forward to adding to this collection as I've encountered a few new books over the years that point to Jesus as the reason for the Christmas season.
