    About this ebook

    A celebration of the One who changed the world when He came to earth as a baby boy.

    This bestselling Lucado Christmas classic is now refreshed and updated with a new title and a beautiful new design. But the heart of the message—the miracle and wonder of the birth of our Lord—remains the same.  Max combines warm, personal stories with the ultimate story—one that has reformed the world since Christ was born in a manger more than 2,000 years ago. One Incredible Savior will be a forever classic for generations to come.

    Previous edition, entitled One Incredible Moment, has sold over 450,000 units.
