The Christmas Cross by Max Lucado has a very
unusual format for a book written for adults.It is a picture book and throughout the book are envelopes
holding items that pertain to the story.It is a bittersweet, but beautiful tale about a man who is having
difficulties in his marriage and finds his way home.This book's theme truly deals with "the reason for the
season."

forgiveness. To an opponent, tolerance. To a friend, your heart. To a customer,
service. To all, charity. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect.-Oren Arnold
