De: Karen Kingsbury

Narrado por: John McDonough

Karen Kingsbury, author of 24 books, has warmed the hearts of millions with her tales of miracles. Gideon's Gift captures a Christmas miracle that touches a frail young girl and a gruff homeless man.

Eight-year-old Gideon Mercer loves to help people, but she has leukemia. When her illness goes into remission at Christmas, she is sure this miracle is a gift from God. So to celebrate, she and her father volunteer to serve meals at a mission for the homeless. She meets dirty, sullen Earl Badgett there, and although he refuses her friendship, she gives him a small gift. This one act will lead to a series of miracles that will change the rest of Gideon's and Earl's lives, and affect countless others.

A story of faith, charity, and rebirth, Gideon's Gift is sure to inspire all listeners with its message of love. John McDonough, critically acclaimed for his colorful narrations of Jan Karon's Mitford books, adds a special warmth to each word.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Kingsbury writes quite well." (Publishers Weekly)

Excellent

Heartwarming story about miracles and the hope of Christmas. This one drew some tears. Must read !

a heartwarming story

I wish this was a movie! a great read! Great practical ideas from the author at the end too!

Unconditional love

Just what I needed for my broken heart. This story shows God’s unconditional love shining through a little child to reach a bitter,angry man with a deeply wounded soul. Such an encouraging story.

Worth the Listen

I thought it was a good story. First and foremost, I only read Christian Fiction because I don’t want bad language or ‘suggestive material’ in my listening. I do want it to encourage me spiritually, it did that a bit, so thank you Karen.
I don’t usually like when a male tries to imitate a female voice or visa versa. Saying that, he changed his voice enough that you knew who was talking, but not so much that it became annoying, so thank you for a good narration.

Red Gloves

Miracles happen to those who believe. As I was going through my book collection, I came across this book series. It’s been several years since I have wandered away from believing. As I came to the end of this book, tears in my eyes, my daughter messaged me today. She has been sick and unable to walk without help. Today, she woke up and felt so much better. She needed help getting downstairs but she is walking around with her 2 year old son as I write this. We have found our way back!! We believe ❤️
