Ok fine. I’ll admit it. I’m already listening to Christmas music. 🙈 Im ready to decorate, and bake, and feel the warm glow of Christmas lights.🎄 🎅🏼 ❄️ ⛄️ The Frank Sinatra Christmas station on Spotify is getting daily play at my house {much to the chagrin of my husband}. I LOVE CHRISTMAS! I also love When Calls the Heart so when I saw this devotional, I knew I had to get my hands on a copy. Oh my goodness, it’s so wonderful! With daily devotions and heartwarming stories from the show, this is such a fantastic feel-good way to start the day. As an added bonus, it includes many recipes for the holidays. It’s early but I wanted to get this out to my fellow Hearties so you can get your copy and start this for the holiday season. When Calls the Heart at Christmas gets all the stars from me...⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 stars!Thank you @broadstreet_publishing for this advance reader in exchange for my honest review.

I love the show When Calls the Heart and so when I saw that they had a Christmas book, I knew I had to read it. I couldn’t put the book down as soon as I downloaded it! I loved the story and the wanting to read more and even the other books in the series. I highly recommend this book to all who loves a Christmas book or When Calls the Heart series.

I grew up loving The Canadian West series by Janette Oke, which inspired Hallmark Channel’s television show When Calls the Heart. I have to confess that I don’t like the show. They’ve changed too much and they’ve removed the powerful faith lessons. So I was skeptical that I would enjoy this book, but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I enjoyed a lot of the recipes that were featured. I feel the book didn’t do a good enough job of pointing to the fact that Christ’s birth is the true reason and meaning of the season- not kindness and time with family. But if you were getting that information to your family in another way, the recipes in this book are very interesting, but I wouldn’t rely on this for the only means of conveying the philosophical meaning of the Christmas season.

While Christmas holds a special place in my heart as a holiday, the past few Christmases have come with much turmoil. This has, in turn, affected the level of festivity I’ve displayed in celebrating. So, deciding to review a devotional on the subject of Christmas was something about which I had mixed feelings. However, just a few pages in, I found the readings helping me. The topics are varied, but each one touches the on feelings that people experience during the holidays as well as at different times in life. Along with the emotional release comes a redirecting of the reader’s mindset and an inner renewal. In general, this book would make an excellent gift and if the person is also a fan of the show the stories will take on even more meaning.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book provided by the publisher and Net Galley. However, the thoughts expressed are my own.

Another favorite . I have been enjoying reading these short bible studies from the executive producer of the TV series. Thank you for allowing me to read.

When God Calls the Heart at Christmas. A beautiful devotional Christmas story that uses Whan Calls the Heart at Christmas. I loved the story and you will too.

This is a wonderful devotional, especially for readers that love the Hallmark Channel's show "When Calls the Heart." The snippets of the show with insight and questions are meaningful. The stories from fellow "Hearties" are heartwarming. I loved all the recipes and I know readers will also. This book will be the perfect Christmas gift for someone special. It would also be great for a small group to discuss and encourage. Highly recommend!

“Christmas Day was so special when I was growing up. My mom had seven brothers and sisters, and the families all went from home to home on Christmas Day, ending at our house ... each family sharing their specialty food and Christmas cookies.”

When God Calls the Heart at Christmas: Heartfelt Devotions from Faith Valley, is the epitome of a beautiful, heartfelt Christmas devotional full of stories that move, inspire, warm the heart, and bring holiday joy.

Brian Bird does an excellent job capturing the Christmas spirit and the characters and warmth of Hope Valley and the characters.

Filled with plenty of stories, memories and Christmas recipes, the devotional is sure to delight and fill even the coldest heart with the Christmas spirit.

What a lovely book. I am a fan of the show. So it is nice that scenes from the show are referenced and put it in a difference perspective. I tend to watch the show for the entertainment. The book puts a religious aspect to the scenes. Well done!

If you are a fan of the TV show, or you have never seen an episode, you will love this Christmas devotional. It is so sweet inspirational. Sure to become a seasonal favorite for years to come. Thank you netgalley snd the publisher for a free Arc in exchange for this honest review

Such a sweet book. Full of inspiration and hope. This is one I will read every year. I have watched the series since the beginning and now I can enjoy this book all year.

This is not really a book so much as it is a devotional. If you love the Hallmark Channel show "When Calls The Heart" and are looking for a short, daily devotional that is perfect for the busy mom that may only have 5 minutes to spare each day, look no further because you have found the perfect book. I would recommend this to everyone but it discusses the show on every day, so if you have not seen any of the shows, I suggest you watch them. Not only are they wonderful, but they are very apparent in this book.

This book has Christmas devotions that are thoughtful, simple, and sweet. The recipes look delicious. There are touching true accounts of Christmas memories written by several “hearties”. These devotions will have a special meaning to those who have followed the show, but even if you’ve never watched the show, you can appreciate and enjoy this book. This book would be a great Christmas gift. I read this book in August and it made me feel ready to celebrate Christmas early.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

I am a huge fan of When Calls the Heart. I really enjoy the feel good atmosphere that it brings. When I saw this book I knew I had to read it. This book is a devotional which the reader can either read each day or read at their leisure. I found it to be full of hope and love at one of the best times of the year. The book is full of stories not only from Hope Valley but from the Hearties who love them. The recipes included seemed nice and easy to make. I always love when a book includes recipes. I highly recommend this book to not only Hearties but to those who feel down and need that pick me up. I received a copy from Netgalley. I positive review was not a requirement.

This was a very nice devotional remembering the episodes of the show When Calls The Heart around Christmas time. It was heart warming and sweet and I enjoyed it very much.

EVERY HEARTIE SHOULD OWN THIS.

I'm serious. This little devotion warmed my heart with not only our beloved tales from Hope Valley during Christmas but the experiences of other Hearties as well. Jammed packed full of light and inspiring stories and lessons that we can glean from our daily lives, this is just the perfect thing to read at Christmas time (Or any time really). I loved the recipes and plan on making at least some of them around the holiday times.

I recommend this for everyone but especially to HEARTIES.

I just finished When God Calls the Heart at Christmas (it’s mid-June) and experiencing Christmas in June is such a treat. This little book is chocked full of great stories, wisdom, holiday traditions, Scriptures and FOOD! Now that combination makes for a great read.

I’m not familiar with When Calls the Heart by Janette Oke and being a cord cutter I have not seen the Hallmark Channel TV series. I have the book on digital hold from my library and look forward to reading it.

This is considered a devotional book and assumes the reader would read one a day. Each one starts with a story from Oke’s book, then scripture and a prayer and questions to meditate on. Then there is a recipe followed by one or more stories from Hearties, those folks devoted to the book or series. Their stories relate to the previous readings

The stories, prayers etc were excellent. The recipes all looked good and easy to make.

This book crosses generational lines and has something for everyone. If you know someone who would be considered a Heartie then it would definitely be a great gift for them.

I received a free copy of the book from NetGalley and Broadstreet Publishing Group LLC in exchange for my honest review. Thank you.

I loved this little book. It's full of stories, recipes and prayers that will lift your spirits. This is a book that I will read over and over again. Thank you NetGalley and Broadstreet Publishing Group LLC for an ARC copy of this book.

This a heartwarming book. Short stories, Yuletide traditions and a general atmosphere of tenderness and hope.
A book to read when you feel down or on a dark day.
Recommended!
