Books by Pastor Dan Carroll

The King of Hope, Finding Your Story in The Christmas Story Join Pastor Dan as he takes you on a journey through the Christmas story, your story, and the hope brought forth with a newborn King “ Christmas is a season that should provoke hope in us, but often brings forth a sense of despair—despair of life, of relationships lost, of dreams that are dashed and of wounds that don’t seem to heal Rather than living in anticipation of the joy and life that the newborn Savior can bring, many shrink away during the Christmas season into protective armor, just hoping to survive the weeks one more time That, my friend, is not God’s heart for you ” — From the preface of The King of Hope
