The God of Amazing Gifts

How can you lead your children to our God who gives good gifts? In The God of Amazing Gifts, Lizzie Laferton helps you lead your family devotions for Advent.

This 125-page book is a resource for families who want to focus their gaze on the Gift-Giver. Featuring 25 devotions, it is a full guide to discovering God. The book is divided into four parts: (1) God the Gift-Giver, (2) God’s Christmas Gift, (3) God’s Gifts to Us, and (4) Our Gifts to Give. Two sets of questions are provided for different ages, with questions for application and sample prayers.

Generous and Gracious

I was most happy to see that this book stresses the idea that God’s is generous and gracious. The devotion on Day 13 focuses on Ephesians 2, recognizing the fact that we cannot earn and we do not deserve God’s gifts. I also appreciated how the book asks you to make applications together as a family, thinking through how you can pray and make plans together.

Definitions to help you explain Scripture are included throughout, and extra ideas are included at the back for family activities and encouraging conversations. This book will help your kids see that we are all children who are grateful for God’s good gifts.
