Not this year. <em>Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room<\/em>,  a family Advent devotional from Bible teacher and mom Nancy Guthrie, is  designed to bring your family together during a season that is  oftentimes too much about programs and presents, and simply not enough  about Jesus. Along with devotions for every day in December, this  resource includes explanations of some hard-to-understand aspects of  popular Christmas carols, and discussion questions to draw in your  elementary through high school-aged kids, transforming this time  together from a dry lecture into a treasured family experience.<\/p>\n<p>Read the first chapter of Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room <a href=\"http:\/\/files.tyndale.com\/thpdata\/FirstChapters\/978-1-4143-3909-2.pdf\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Guthrie_Nancy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-6540\" title=\"Guthrie_Nancy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/Guthrie_Nancy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"105\" height=\"138\" \/><\/a>Nancy has written two devotionals: <em>The One Year Book of Hope<\/em> (also Tyndale), a daily devotional for people who are hurting or grieving, and <em>One Year of Dinner Table Devotions and Discussion Starters<\/em>. Nancy has a heart for in-depth Bible study, and her books <em>Hoping for Something Better<\/em> (a study of the book of Hebrews) and <em>Hearing Jesus Speak into Your Sorrow<\/em> are an outgrowth of that love. Nancy and her husband, David, cowrote <em>When Your Family&#8217;s Lost a Loved One<\/em>.  The Guthries have seen God continue to use their loss to minister to  other people going through loss in a variety of ways, including serving  as cohosts for a new production of the GriefShare video series.  GriefShare is a 13-week video curriculum series that is used to  facilitate weekly grief groups in more than 6,000 churches nationwide.<\/p>\n<p><br class=\"spacer_\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Nancy speaks regularly at women&#8217;s retreats and evangelistic events  nationally and internationally, including recent events at The Brooklyn  Tabernacle, Second Baptist Church of Houston, a Ravi Zacharias  International Ministries Conference, and a women&#8217;s conference in  Scotland. Nancy has worked in the Christian publishing industry for  over\u00a020 years as a publicist and special project editor. Nancy and her  husband, David, and son, Matt, make their home in Nashville, Tennessee,  where they attend Christ Presbyterian Church (Presbyterian Church in  America).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MY REVIEW: Let Every Heart Prepare Him Room is a tiny little devotional for the advent season.
