Megan’s stories
Christmas with Ms. Josie
When 17-year-old Pepper Haines ends up stranded in a snowstorm, she’s forced to seek shelter in the home of an elderly widow named Josie Tuttle. Spending Christmas Eve away from family feels like disaster, but God may bring about something more beautiful than either of them planned.
The Sign Upstairs
Zoe Milligan loves Christmas, except for having to spend it with her show-off cousin, Sofia. Yet when Zoe is confronted by Sofia’s strange, withdrawn behavior, she must choose—does she hold onto their old rivalry, or can she show the love of Jesus instead?
