  • Description

    Tully wants to be a part of all the Christmas festivities along with his human family, but they are always telling him, "No Tully. Sit down. You will make a mess." When his leash gets tangled around the Christmas tree, the whole tree falls down, creating a big mess! Tully is afraid his family will be mad that he ruined Christmas, but instead they are reminded of the very first Christmas when Jesus came to Earth to clean up our messes.

    This Christmas turn to Jesus who came into our messy world, took up our burdens, carried our sorrows, and died so we might live. Now he lives to intercede for all, right in the middle of our messy lives. The story presents a clear, gospel-centered message designed to help families discuss sin, grace, forgiveness, and the reason for celebrating Christmas.

    Written by Jill and Paul Miller and illustrated by Jonty Howley, Tully's Christmas Mess is ideal for family read-alouds, Advent devotions, Sunday school, and children's ministry. Its warm, accessible storytelling and engaging artwork make it a meaningful Christmas gift for children and families.
