Top Four Picks For Best Christmas Gifts 2007

posted by Kris Rasmussen | 12:45pm Wednesday December 12, 2007

I don’t profess to know what Jesus would buy, but if you are still searching for a few fresh ideas for Christmas gifts, here are my four favorite new religious products of the Christmas season.


God With Us – I realize the Advent season is well under way, but if you are still looking for a fantastic devotional to enhance the meaning of the Christmas, look no further than this book. A variety of artistic theological voices including Luci Shaw and Scott Cairns contribute to this collection of essays.
Lark News Apparel : With clever slogans such as “I worship better than you do,” “Abstinence is forever” and “I am with the puppet team,” the satirical Lark News website offers a wide variety of scathingly hilarious casual wear for evangelicals of all kinds.
Through a Screen Darkly: For the movie lover in your life, I highly recommend this book by Jeffrey Overstreet (I know I have been giving him a lot of mentions here at Idol Chatter, but I swear I get not a nickel for it!) that provides an accessible but intelligent thoughts about how to approach and discuss contemporary cinema.
The One Year Daily grind Bible: Part of Tyndale’s “Daily Bible” series, teen devotional author Sarah Arthur has added her thoughts to a new devotional Bible geared toward twentysomethings. There are humorous personal anecdotes and creative musings mixed in with devotional reflections and is a great gift idea for your favorite millennial.
