All The Colors Of Christmas
$12.99Add to cartThe best-selling author of When I Pray for You and When God Made You captures the wonder of Christmas in a lyrical exploration of what makes the season so colorful, magical, and personal to our hearts.
In his trademark style, Matthew Paul Turner celebrates the Christmas season, particularly the colors that come with the holiday and all the memorable sensations connected to those bright hues.
Christmas is RED.
It’s a bright shiny sled.
It’s candy canes,
and toy store lanes.
It’s sprinkles on sweet bread.It’s packages with bows,
And Rudolph’s bright red nose
It’s pictures drawn
And dressed-up lawns
And warm mittens when it snows.Matthew surrounds his readers into a whirling ribbon of the familiar reds and greens, and also other festive hues, including white, gold, blue, and brown. All the colors come together when readers are reminded that Christmas is YOU, that the holidays are nothing without being with the people we love, celebrating traditions, and making new memories–in vivid color.

From the moment I saw you,
