Timberdoodle's review Learn more   Jotham's Journey: A Storybook For Advent Over 10,000 copies of Jotham's Journey have passed through the Timberdoodle warehouse, making it one of our most popular titles. In fact, it is so sought-after that when it went out of print, used copies were being sold for triple the retail price! What makes this book so desirable? Kidnappers, Wise Men, Shepherds... Jotham's Journey is the story of a ten-year-old shepherd boy who, in a fit of anger, runs away from his father's tent. His nomadic family assumes he is dead and travels on. Remorseful Jotham tries to reconnect with his loved ones. As he proceeds through Palestine, he encounters a tangle of kidnappers, wise men, shepherds, and innkeepers, then finally the Savior who was born in Bethlehem. Captivating Family Devotional Written as an advent resource for parents, Jotham's Journey will focus the attention of the whole family on the true meaning of Christmas. Every night, as your family reads another intriguing episode, children and adults alike will be captivated by Jotham's remarkable adventure. Far more accurate than the nativity fluff families see on TV, Jotham's Journey will open your eyes to what life was really like for Israelites living in an occupied nation. Each installment of the story is followed by a short devotional designed to challenge your family during a season that is commercially bent on self-indulgence. Start This Book on November 29th! Order now to get the full benefits of this devotional. Jotham's Journey is designed to be started on the fourth Sunday before Christmas, so you will want your copy in hand before November 29th. (However, if you are ordering in late fall, so that your book arrives after November 29th, we suggest you just double up, one devotion in the morning, one at night, until you have caught up.) 168 pages, with introductory notes and ideas for celebrating Advent.   Features Timberdoodle's favorite Advent storybook 168 pages A portion of the story for every day of Advent, including Christmas Day. An Advent calender schedule from the current time to the year 2058 Specific instructions for making an Advent wreath. Average Customer Review: Based on 11 Reviews. Write a review.

Years later, this book still speaks to me November 5, 2008 Reviewer: Susan K. from Broken Arrow, OK   This was one of the best stories to read during Christmas season as it fleshes out the feel of what it would have been like to actually be there when Christ was born and the story is so exciting (some parts are a little scary) my children couldn't wait to read the next one.  The reflections at the end of each chapter truly bring Christ into the season.  Years after reading this book, the part of the "runaway" crying out for Jehovah still speaks to my heart.

They are asking to read it again!! November 5, 2008 Reviewer: Mary P. from Mount Clemens, MI   This is a great way to keep the family focused on the real meaning of Christmas.  My kids love that they feel they are there.  This Christmas story is so interesting, taking many twists and turns, that we don't get bored with it even though we have read it every Christmas for several years.  By mid November they are asking me when we will be starting Jotham’s Journey.  This is a devotional that your kids will want you to read to them year after year.

Our kids won't let us skip a night October 31, 2008 Reviewer: Lisa O. from Williamsport, PA   These advent books have been one of my children's favorite Christmas traditions, from our 3 year old to our teenagers.  Under no circumstances will they let us skip a night.  The stories are entertaining, and the devotionals always pertinent.  They are by far one of the highlights of our Christmas season.
