A Little Gift-Giving Help For My Friends

If you’re in search of a great holiday gift for a relative, pastor, or friend, a beautiful calendar is the gift that keeps giving all year `round. Last year, I heard of a few people who bundled my book about the Jewish and Christian calendars with a 2017 calendar.Moments & Days: How Our Holy Celebrations Shape Our Faith is an evergreen title that can be used year after year, combining it with a 2018 calendar is a way to extend your gift even further.

To make your Christmas shopping a little easier, I’ve highlighted five unique 2018 calendars that touch on some of the themes in the book.* (And read to the bottom of this post, as I have a special offer to share that’ll make your gift-giving a little more personal.)
