It’s okay for all of us to be kids at Christmas. God arrived in Christ! In this book, you’re invited to marvel at the wonder of God’s coming.
“This is a thoughtful, biblical, and intentionally lyrical call to enter the divine circle of giving because, as the author notes, ‘sometimes we need the truth to be lyrical for it to sink into our souls.’ And because it is soul-penetrating, it is more practical than the erstwhile manuals because it invites us into the trinitarian orb of giving and the ongoing stewardship of all that we have. Do you want to become a giver after God’s heart? Spend time in the remarkable pages of this book.”
– R. Kent Hughes
“Pierce’s passion about facing the tough parts of life with ultimate confidence bring a dimension with them impossible to fabricate. They come to us with unusual honesty. I don’t believe I know of any writings quite like his. Pastoral, practical, and profoundly biblical.”

I love this book. We read that loneliness is epidemic in our modern world, yet our Creator is ready and willing to listen to us at any and all times. In fact, He created us to commune with Him, and invented language so that we could participate in this great blessing. Read this and learn to grow closer to the God who speaks, and listens.
– Reader Testimonial
Hibbs invites us to rediscover . . . the ultimate source of all language in the divine Trinity. Fresh, compelling, it is required reading for anyone wishing to navigate the challenging field of linguistics and make Christian sense of it.
