The Deliverer Has Come

A Christmas Story

About the Book

Told from the perspective of a young girl living during the time of Jesus’s birth, this uniquely illustrated nativity story helps young readers understand the “what” and embrace the “why” of Christmas.

Anika loves stories. Her favorites are the stories Great Auntie Anna shares from the scriptures. The stories about the Deliverer, the one God promised to send, the one whom the Israelites have been waiting for.

Soon Anika begins to hear new stories that hint that the Deliverer has come—from shepherds, wise men, and even her great-auntie! Will Anika get to one day tell the story of how she too met the Deliverer?

Through this child’s-eye view of the original nativity story accompanied by breathtakingly unique illustrations, husband-and-wife team Sarah Shin and Shin Maeng weave together the anticipation and waiting in the season of Advent with the celebration of the arrival of our hope through Jesus.

Excerpt

The Deliverer Has Come

Anika loved stories. And the stories she loved most
were the ones her great-auntie Anna told her.

Stories about a God who created a good and beautiful world.
And stories about their people, whom God chose to be His own.

In the past, their people trusted God, and they
defeated giants, lions, and kings. But their people also
often forgot to trust God and suffered through hard
times, slavery, and exile. Yet God always promised
to rescue them if they turned to Him again.

These stories gave Anika hope . . . because their
people were waiting to be saved by the Deliverer
whom God promised would end their suffering.
