Very addictive

I fell in love with the books of Max Lucado a few years ago. All of his stories are very easy to read. I started to read Cosmic Christmas and became completely addicted. When I first picked it up, I just read a few pages. I couldn't wait to get back to it. I had to make time to finish the book. I couldn't think about anything else. Everyone I have loaned it to has said the same thing. "I just can't put it down!" It is a wonderful story, creatively written. You can actually feel the throne room. You can feel the Hell Hounds around you. You can feel yourself standing in the presense of the baby king, Jesus. I highly recommend this book to everyone of all ages. It also makes a great Christmas gift.

A twist on A Christmas Story...

My pastor read us this story on Christmas Eve, very much like a father would read to his children;in front of a faux fireplace and Christmas tree in a large overstuffed chair. He even had people acting it out behind him on stage dressed as Satan, and Gabriel, and so on.. I have never been so moved by any one book. As soon he finished it, I made sure to put in a order at my local bookstore and read it 3 times the first day. It really makes you realize how much the Lord loves us. More importantly it shows how much Satan wants to succeed in making us FAIL. I have since recommended it to every person I know, and have told a dozen more about it. It's a very beatiful, very different spin on the traditional Christmas story. Let's face it, we all know why we celebrate the season, but do we know the reason behind God's plan? Even thought it is a work of fiction, I think all will agree this book is very worth taking an hour out of your day to read.

True to Lucado style, this is a must read, all time classic!

This book explains God's plan from an angel's point of view. True to the Lucado style of writing, it keeps the reader on his toes and gives us another insight into the deepness of our Creator's love. An excellent gift for any occaision.

Fantastic Conception of God's Love

I first read this book a little over eight months ago when one of my Sunday school teachers read an excerpt from the book. I have now read this book at least a dozen times and foresee reading it at least a dozen more. Not only does Max Lucado present his conception of Christmas; but he clearly reveals God's LOVE for His Children! If ever there was a book for all Christians to read--especially we Baby Christians--this is it! Every child, growing up in a Christian Home, should have this book nearby. It has refocused me time and again!

This book changed my perspective of Christmas forever

In less than an hour last Christmas Eve, my understanding and experience of Christmas was forever changed. Cosmic Christmas gave me a new way to look at and understand God's gift of divinity in flesh to humanity. Wow...absolutely breathtaking. Definitely the best way I have ever spent Christmas Eve, and I highly recommend this book. Among the top 5 books I have ever read.
