With a foreword written by Sinclair B. Ferguson, this little book contains 38 devotionals centered on Christ and His incarnation. The devotions are brief and perfect for quick reading. It is noticeable that the topics of the devotions are repeated multiple times. Most probably, these are Spurgeon’s sermons (around eight or nine) that were divided into multiple parts to create more easily digestible devotionals.

While the devotions are designed to be read during the Christmas season, I find them good to be read anytime during the year. Spurgeon’s messages are clear, biblical, and easy to understand. They will point you to Christ and make you reflect on His power, glory, and humility.

If you want to supplement your Advent Bible readings with a good devotional, Charles Spurgeon’s Good Tidings of Great Joy is definitely an excellent option. These meditations from the pen of the Prince of Preachers are worth reading and will draw you close to the Prince of Peace.

As we approach the Christmas season, let us remember the good news: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners (1 Timothy 1:15-17 NLT), and worship God with thanksgiving, reverence, and awe!
