Details
The Jesse Tree, by Eric and Susan Sammons, will lead your family this Advent in a way that brings Christ close as you prepare for the Lord’s coming at Christmas. Engaging with the Old Testament patriarchs and prophets who are the branches in Jesus’ family tree, is a focus of The Jesse Tree and allows readers to understand fully how, in Christ, this family history becomes the history of our salvation. Jesus’ fascinating ancestry is explored in The Jesse Tree and you learn of how God’s plan of salvation unfolds from Adam and Eve, through the Old Testament prophets, to the birth of Christ, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and the sacraments of the Church. Marvel at the parallels between Adam and Christ, the New Adam; Eve and Mary, the New Eve; the patriarch Joseph and St. Joseph, guardian of the Redeemer; and others.
With The Jesse Tree as your guide, learn about the rich, faith-building customs surrounding the Jesse Tree throughout the centuries — and how to create your own. The image of a beautiful ornament signifying an important person or event in the Bible is provided for each day. The daily meditation explains the mystery of the ornament that is featured. And extra information is included for families with older children who want to “dig deeper” into the significance of what is foretold.

- Full-color ornament with a distinguishing symbol
- Biblical passage or story illustrating the theme
- Brief, engaging meditation with questions for discussion
- Traditional prayer to enrich the devotion
