Sarah Young, author of the best-selling "Jesus Calling" and "Jesus Listens" series passed away on August 31, 2023.
Sarah was a prolific author who shared the gospel of Jesus Christ through dozens of books that sold more than 45- million copies worldwide.
I was blessed to be asked by her editors at Tommy Nelson/HarperCollins to work with Sarah on one of her last children's books, Jesus Calling, Advent & Christmas Prayers. I'm grateful to have been a part of Sarah's ministry and for the trust she put in me to help share her words with the world.
From the publisher:
Celebrate Advent and Christmas with this read-aloud children's prayer book by Sarah Young, bestselling author of Jesus Calling, Jesus Always, and Jesus Listens. This board book for ages 0-4 includes an Advent calendar of 25 prayers alongside a simple retelling of the Christmas story that invites the hope of Jesus and the joy of the nativity into little hearts. Jesus Calling Advent and Christmas Prayers will remind children that Jesus loves them so much that He left heaven to be born as a tiny baby in a stable so He can be with them forever.
