Dear Friend:
Christmas
is almost here! Frank McKibben wrote, “This is Christmas:
not the tinsel, not the giving and receiving, not even the
carols, but the humble heart that receives anew the wondrous
gift, the Christ.” The Apostle John wrote, “But as many as
received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of
God, even to them that believe on his name” (John 1:12). One
of the best ways to celebrate Christmas is to let people
know about Jesus—Immanuel—God with us. What a wonderful
Christmas it would be if we each led someone (or several) to
a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. It would result in
wonderful joy for both the soul-winners and the ones who are
saved. There would be great joy in Heaven, as well. Let’s
remember these words of William Parks: “Christmas is not
just a day, an event to be observed and speedily forgotten.
It is a spirit which should permeate every part of our
lives. To believe that the spirit of Christmas does change
lives and to labor for the realization of its coming to all
men is the essence of our faith in Christ.”
A very merry Christmas to you and
yours!
Authors on the Move
 Julie
Kloster, author of
The Eternal Truths of Narnia, reminds us that the
new motion picture, “Voyage of the Dawn Treader,” will be
released in theaters on December 10. She writes, “I am
hoping and praying that God will use the movie. . . . It
would be wonderful if God would further the use this study [The
Eternal Truths of Narnia]. . . . in conjunction with the
movie to further His kingdom. It also seems like good timing
with Christmas coming soon—the study along with the Narnia
books will make a great gift set!” I heartily agree with
Julie about this. Her study guide was very useful as I
shared The Chronicles of Narnia with my
grandchildren. Visit Julie's website at

 Paul
King, author of
God’s Healing Arsenal (to be released this winter)
just returned from a ten-day ministry trip throughout
western Pennsylvania, where he ministered at a Rekindle the
Flame Renewal Conference with the Christian and Missionary
Alliance and other churches. They experienced a powerful
supernatural time, as God brought forth spiritual,
emotional, and physical healings as well as deliverances.
The gifts of the Holy Spirit were in operation in Alliance
churches and their pastors. Paul reports that many are
anticipating the release of his upcoming book. During the
week of January 2-9, 2011, Paul will be teaching at Alliance
Theological Seminary in Nyack, New York, and in a couple of
churches. Later in January, Paul will be presenting a
seminar (possibly on healing) at the South County Christian
Center in St. Louis, a church that is pastored by Shawn
Craig (of the music group Phillips, Craig, and Dean.)
Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron
will be on TBN’s “Praise Program” on December 9, 2010. Have
you ever watched Ray and Kirk on television as they reach
out to the lost in so many different places around the
world? To see them in operation is to be challenged,
inspired, thrilled, and blessed. I praise God for their
ministry of evangelism that is leading so many to our Lord
Jesus Christ.
 Kevin
Cross, author of
Building Your Financial Fortress in 52 Days and
Embezzlement, has two major upcoming events. In January
he will be on “Family Life Today” with Dennis Rainey. On
January 15, 2011, the much-anticipated and talked about
event called “Margin and Meaning—the Financial Event for
Troubled Times” will be hosted by Fellowship Bible Church in
Atlanta. Kevin also reports that the audio book for
Embezzlement is now available in iTunes, and for a limited
time it is available as free download at
embezzlementbook.com Spring

Our
new catalog will soon be in our warehouse. It will have our
new titles for January through spring, and it will update

helpful features. This is the Bible so many have been
waiting for, and it should become available in the early
spring. Other upcoming releases

Happy New Year! My
sincere prayer for you is that 2011 will be a bright and
blessed year for you and yours. May it be filled with many
wonderful and unexpected blessings. I know that our God
shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory
by Christ Jesus. (See Philippians 4:19.) Yours in Christ, Lloyd B. Hildebrand
