The author states that "throughout the Bible, the number seven appears repeatedly to signify completeness or perfection. From the seven days of creation to the seven colors of the rainbow, it's no wonder God heralded the entry of His Son into the world with seven unique prophetic words that still speak to us today. Salvation, favor, blessed, guidance, joy, redemption and peace are the words the King of heaven and earth used to usher in the greatest gift ever given. His Son! And all of these words are gifts He wants to give each of us as we celebrate the birth of Jesus."
This book can be used as a bible study with a group or individually - studying each word for seven weeks leading up to Christmas. Or it can be read all in one sitting or over several days. It is not overly long book but it gave me alot to think about. I've read the Christmas story every Christmas for many years but this was a unique and meaningful way to view it. I think it helps to see things from a different angle - it can help and enhance our understanding.
