Christmas Thoughts

Request Yours

By: J.C. Ryle; Edited by Andrew Atherstone

Christmas Thoughts is a collection of five personal reflections from 19th-century pastor J.C. Ryle.

Ryle speaks directly to the book’s readers—challenging and encouraging readers to make Christ the center of their Christmas celebrations. He compels readers to reflect on what Christmas means as a member of God’s family and make family gatherings a time of Christ-centered focus and worship. Ryle writes, “If our Christmas is nothing more than merry-making, and a holiday, and Jesus has no place in it, it can hardly be well-spent. A Christmas without Christ! It cannot be a really happy one.”

Reading Christmas Thoughts is like sitting down and having a personal conversation with this well-known preacher from the 1800s! Ryle shares his own personal Christmas experiences throughout the book and urges readers to consider their spiritual state as another year comes to an end.
