Dear Randi,

I feel for you and I wish I could give you a hug right now. I have met so many who feel the way you do and I agree, it is so refreshing to find this blog and those who follow in the steps of Jesus. I am so sorry that you are receiving condemnation and I also will include you in my prayers that Jesus will reward your hearts desire to become the woman He would have you to be.

Most Sincerely,

Kare

That’s funny! That is the exact one I stumbled upon myself while at a recent stop at Crate and Barrel. Cannot beat $3.99!

We are making a scroll out of dowel rods and cardstock to represent the prophets. I will probably write the names of the prophets on the scroll. I found cute ornament cut outs at “The Advent Event.”

Thank you so much for sharing this. I ordered the e-book and spent about $10 at Hobby Lobby and got almost half of my ornaments, all cute little wooden cutouts! I am making several from felt and such. I am so excited about starting this tradition with my family.

I have the ebook. I don’t see any advantage to having the book form unless you really cannot stand reading from a computer.

Lindsay,
Do you have the actual book, or are you using the ebook? Any advantages/disadvantages to either one? I don’t think we would receive the book in time if I ordered it now.
Thanks,
Sharon

Thanks so much for this post! My daughter loves doing an Advent calendar but I’ve been loathe to do a cheesy chocolate filled one from the store. I ended up buying the e-book you highlighted and we’re going to be putting together the ornaments over Thanksgiving weekend. What a wonderful way to take children through God’s amazing path to our redemption!
