For Jeremy, Christmas is just another reminder that he'll never be able to enjoy the things that come so easily to other children. Then one night he has a dream that will change everything. Accompanied by stirring music, this story of finding faith and discovering the power of the Master Healer is sure to be cherished at Christmastime and all year long.

CD of music also available. (Goodreads)

Christmas is around the corner and this book along with the accompanying music CD can put you in the true spirit of the season ..Christ

It's easy to throw a personal pity-party when life throws you a hard curve ball.  It also provides one a time to question god's logic in having bad things happen to good people.  This happened to young Jeremy.  See, Jeremy was a victim of a car accident caused by a drunk driver that left him confined to a wheelchair.  His parents were grateful to god that he survived and deemed the sparing of Jeremy's life as a miracle.  However, this special season caused Jeremy to understandably dwell on his negative situation.  For example, he will surely receive presents that would remind him that he could not ride a bike, play football, play in the snow, and so on.  The family tradition of reading the Christmas story from the bible was the last straw.  Jeremy doubted that the Son of god would come to earth in such low circumstances and so he questioned Christ's existence and purpose. 

Sometimes it takes other's heartfelt testimonies to find our own.  Jeremy's dream that Christmas eve did that for him.  He dreamt that Jesus Christ was on trial for claiming to be the Messiah and Savior of the world.  Several witnesses then willingly comes forward to testify of Christ's divinity.  We hear from Jesus's family, Mary, his mother, and James, his brother.  We also hear from recipients of Christ's healing powers, Bartimaeus and Lazarus.  Then finally to those that witnessed Christ's kindness, Woman Known as a Sinner and a Roman Soldier.  Upon waking up from the dream, do you suppose Jeremy felt a change of heart?  Did the witnesses' testimonial stir an agreement with him and he too can now declare an attestation of Christ?  You'll have to read the book to find out!

Jeremy's Christmas Journey coupled with the companion music CD is a special Christmas treat.  Your heart will thank you for reading it.

FYI: Each testimonials, including Jeremy's, followed with a song. Hence, the music CD serves as enhancement. Check YouTube for samples.
