5 Christmas Books Leaders Should Read In December 2022

With Christmas just around the corner, I thought it would be great to change up the book recommendations for the month of December. Instead of being specifically leadership-focused, these books will inspire and encourage leaders through the season of Advent and Christmas.

I chose these books specifically for you because I know how difficult the Christmas season can be. Whether the struggle is personal, relational, or related to your role as a leader, we need these reprieves to help us recover.

Use these books to dig deep into faith, relationships, and yourself.

4. The 13th Gift: A True Story of a Christmas Miracle by Joanne Huist Smith:

Christmastime isn’t the easiest time for people, especially for those that have lost loved ones. Joanne Huist Smith and her family experienced the loss of her husband not too long before Christmas.

The outlook looked bleak. Smith wasn’t sure how she would hold things together, especially as Christmas approached.

That’s when things began to change. Huist’s true friends started to leave presents at her door shortly before Christmas. These acts of kindness showed her there were people who still cared and shows us how we can be miracles to those around us.

5. A Child Is Born by Billy Tucci:

I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the true Christmas story of Jesus’ birth in the list of books to read this month. While you can find the complete story in the Bible, I want to highlight Billy Tucci’s A Child Is Born graphic novel.

Tucci uses his wonderful artistic style to bring to life the birth of Christ. He researched the stories surrounding Christ’s birth with Nativity scholars to bring us this beautiful book.

Read and view the story and figure out how you can apply what Christ did for all of us in your leadership journey.
