In The Christmas Shoes, young Nathan Andrews lost his mother to cancer. His deepest wish was to become a doctor. When a stranger named Robert gave him the money to buy his mother a pair of shoes for her last Christmas, both Robert and Nathan learned profound lessons about love and giving. Now a third-year medical student, Nathan realizes there are still lessons to be learned about faith, blessings, and sacrifice—lessons he will learn from Meghan Sullivan, a young woman born with a hole in her heart who has not let it stop her from becoming a champion runner, and from a young boy named Charlie, who teaches how to live a life of true courage. Together they help guide Nathan through the darkest period of his life. The Christmas Blessing is an inspiring novel about hope existing in the darkest places, and about how love is always the greatest gift of all.
