Ron Davis Unlocks True Christmas Spirit in New Book Through the Eyes...
By: Robert Diamond Oct. 01, 2018
"How do you get into the Christmas spirit?" That's how author Ron Davis begins his book, contemplating how to unlock the true spirit of Christmas in the lives of his class every December. In his new book called Through the Eyes of Christmas, he delves deeper into this reflection and shares insight from his journey to experience the true joy of Christmas.
Ron Davis wrote this narrative to refocus how his reader celebrates the Christmas season. As a Sunday School teacher, he was compelled to dig deep into the preparation so that his Christmas lesson would give a more eye-opening experience to his class members. Through this journey of studying the Christmas story, he realized that the secret of finding the true Christmas spirit lies in the lives, and through the eyes, of the first participants of Christmas.
"At its heart, Through the Eyes of Christmas is a series of Christmas Sunday school lessons (or if you prefer, Christmas sermons) that redirect our focus at Christmas," Ron shares. "It reveals keys to unlocking the true spirit of Christmas in your heart by looking through the eyes of the first Christmas story participants."
The insights he shares come from the depth and wide variety of his life experiences as a man who wears many hats. Professionally, Ron Davis has worked in both private practice and as an in-house corporate counsel for 30 years as a practicing corporate attorney. Outside of his professional life, he pursues his passion as a student of the Bible, speaker, and author.
Through the Eyes of Christmas is a narrative of the experiences of those who personally experienced the event, including Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, and the wise men. It looks at Christmas not only as an annual holiday celebration but also as a life-changing moment for those who actually experienced it.
The book explores how the Christmas season became more a holiday for people to shop and decorate, overlooking the real meaning of Christmas. This leads to a feeling of emptiness and no lasting joy once it ends. Ron returns to the "basic Christian principles that inspire the true joy of Christmas," a cornerstone of a successful Christian life.
Through the Eyes of Christmas by Ron Davis is published by Elm Hill, a self-publishing division of HarperCollins Christian Publishing. The book will be available in paperback, hardbound, and eBook formats.
