Music is everywhere at Christmas - chart toppers, carols, children's tunes. Alistair Begg takes us to four songs that were sung by people at the very first Christmas (and his favorite carol). In this short, winsome book, a teenage girl, a respected priest, a group of angels, and an old man bring listeners to the heart of Christmas, showing them the joy and peace that comes from meeting a baby who lay in the food trough and changed eternity.

I listened to this last year and again this year. I thoroughly enjoyed this great book both times. I'd listen to and recommend just about anything by Alistair Begg and this Christmas book is at the top of my list. It's also one of the best explanations of who Christ is, why He came to earth, and why we need Him.

One of the best Christmas book I've ever read!!

I love how simply he states things and how easy it is to understand.

I’d never thought about all these songs together.

Highly recommend.

A new fave.

This succinct review of Saint Luke’s nativity account highlights key themes to ponder ahead of tbe Christmas celebration. The title had led me to expect something entirely different, but I was not disappointed. It was truly inspired and filled me with the love of Our Lord Jesus. God bless the author. Just one discordant note: Allister, don’t be so sure that Our Lady sinned.

Great way to prepare for Xmas

If you have questions, please buy this audio book. Pastor Begg explains it all. In terms even a 70 year old who forgets everything can understand. Believe it or not, you need this book. It will free you and give you the peace that passes all understanding.

Highly recommend

I am so thankful for Alistair Begg, his teaching, his devotion to God, and his ministry. That being said, I recommend listening to sermons that he has preached on these topics rather than this audiobook. His reading lacks animation and feeling. Great words, I enjoyed the perspective they helped me have during Advent, but it was difficult for me to focus.

Better teacher than narrator

I enjoyed the insights of the meaning of the book of Luke of the author.

The author connecting the poems or songs in the book of Luke from Bethlehem to the resurrection of Christ.

The songs that Begg covers are from Scripture: “The Magnificat” by Mary, Zechariah’s song, the proclamation of the angels, and the song of Simeon in the temple. Begg ends by briefly describing his favorite Christmas Carol and why it is his favorite.

The purpose of going through each of these songs in succession is to rehearse the good news of the gospel. Laid out with the intent of explaining the gospel, I found it too laborious for many people who might be searching. He didn’t seem to attempt layman’s vocabulary, and much of it sounded more like “Christianese”. This may have been an affect of Alistair Begg reading it himself. I don’t mind his voice, but his style was lacking in passion… It just didn’t strike me as accessible.

As for the typical Christian reading this book, it might be helpful? It wasn’t for me. Most of the topics he covers I found elementary, concepts I’ve grown up hearing in connection to each of the songs discussed all my life. This book may, however, be useful to young adult believers or in child rearing.

Just OK
