Read Max Lucado Devotional 19 December 2023 – Read Inspirational Message for Tuesday written by Pastor Max Lucado
TOPIC: The Promise of Christmas
No day is accidental or incidental. No acts are random or wasted.

As a writer, Max is known for combining poetic storytelling and homespun humor with the heart of a pastor. All of his trade books began as sermon series at Oak Hills Church, and his sermons all begin with Max asking himself this question: “What can I say on Sunday that will still matter on Monday?” He’s been dubbed “America’s Pastor” by Christianity Today, and “The Best Preacher in America” by Reader’s Digest
