Can I Hold Him by Janet Stobie

Appearing today on the Talk Story TV at 1pm MT is writer and inspirational speaker Rev. Janet Stobie. She will be introducing her short story collection, Can I Hold Him- Christmas Stories for All Ages. In this short story collection, Janet Stobie offers her readers a new perspective on our beloved Christmas story. Janet invites you to let go of your preconceived ideas and step into the shoes and minds of the traditional Christmas characters. For a few moments you will become Joseph or Mary, or the innkeeper’s daughter, and more. Each unique viewpoint offers new understanding for our lives today. The four contemporary stories that Janet has included in this collection will bring chuckles to your reading experience. Janet suggests, “The Bible offers us God’s living Word. When you read my stories, open your mind and heart to receive the special surprise God has in store for you.” As the basis of a Christmas program for your group, children’s events, intergenerational worship, Bible Study, or read as part of your family’s Christmas preparations, Can I Hold Him? will give hours of pleasure. Rev. Janet Stobie, is the author of two children’s books, Spectacular Stella and A Place Called Home/ Homeless? Who Me? as well as a second collection of short stories, A Child Speaks.
