What GOD wants for Christmas

This year we tried something different Christmas morning.  Instead of our usual reading of the Christmas story we read a book called 'What GOD wants for Christmas' by Amy Gordon.  This book includes a cd and 7 segments.  Each segment is a short story told by the angel Gabriel about one specific person in the story of Christ's birth.  After each 'round' of gift opening we would stop and listen to a segment, which also includes a carol.  It was very neat and a good way to focus on Christ, his birth and our part in the Christmas story.  It is published by Family Life Publishing.
