Faith in the News Christian News
Have you been searching high and low for a faith-based Christmas present for a little one? Well, your journey ends here. Below are three faith-friendly gifts that any kid will love. Not only will these gifts entertain your kids, but they will also teach them stories from the Bible.
A Christmas Odyssey – 12 Audio Stories
This CD has over 4 hours of listening entertainment that will help teach your kids the true meaning of Christmas. This would be perfect for listening to before bedtime or even in a car. In a day when everyone is entertained visually why not let your child learn to use their imagination by listening to the story instead of watching.
Product Summary
Forget those serene manger images you see on Christmas cards. A Christmas Odyssey revisits the Christmas story as Connie and Eugene “crash” Bethlehem for Jesus’ birth. “Silent Night?” Hardly!
Then zoom back to the present for a Kids’ Radio reenactment that’s too close for comfort: “Mary” goes into premature labor! There’s enough drama to go around for several Christmases. Or multiple replays. Whichever comes first.

The letter is old and says that someone named Albert will be imprisoned if the sunstone isn’t found. Mr. Whittaker sends cousins Patrick and Beth to Greenland circa 1000. On their quest for the sunstone, the cousins meet Vikings Erik the Red and Leif Eriksson—and find the sunstone as they join Leif on his first voyage to North America. But the adventure is just beginning, for when they return to Mr. Whittaker’s workshop with the sunstone, there is another note waiting for them, requesting a silver goblet.
