About the book:
What Matters Most This Christmas Season?
Christmas should be a time of joy and celebration. But in the hurriedness of December, sometimes we find ourselves sacrificing a sacred pace for hustle, leaving us feeling more stressed than blessed.
What if you approached this Advent more open to the things of God? What if you decided to be expectant that God would move in your midst? What if you made room for the true joy found in the coming of our King?
Prepare Him Room invites you to give God sacred space in your holiday season as you ponder the miracle of Christ within you and respond to His work in your life. As you begin your Christmas preparations this year, journey through Luke's account of Jesus' birth, life, death, and ultimate resurrection. God invites you to be still and let Jesus radically transform you this holy season. Let earth receive her King!

My Review:
Prepare Him Room is perfect for the holiday season. Each devotional for the 25 days leading up until Christmas features Bible chapters to read, relevant Bible verses and quotes, a prayer for the day, and a fasting challenge (ex., fast from discontentment, from worry, etc). Susie Larson writes passionately about re-writing modern day Christmas and turning it into the day it was meant to be from the start. A time to ignore the discontentment and anxiety that day-to-day life brings and instead focus on the beautiful gift Christ brought, and the peace it brings.
I also love the size of this devotional- it’s small and has a really cute design to it, making it a great pre-Christmas gift for someone.
