Christmas for Forty Days

Praise for CHRISTMAS 40 DAYS DEVOTIONAL: A LOVING CELEBRATION by Mrs. Sam & Kevin Sorbo

“As I read this wonderful, heartwarming Christmas book by Sam and Kevin Sorbo, I’m comforted that I’m not the only one who thinks Christmas is just too wonderful to be limited to only one day a year. 40 intentional days to recognize the arrival of God in the flesh to dwell among us and identify with us in the human journey. It’s a reverent but celebrative series of beautiful devotions to keep the “Christmas Sleigh” between the ditches by focusing on faith and family and how to observe and treasure every day of the Christmas Season. If you love Christmas like I do, you’ll love this inspired collection of memories and devotions that your family can enjoy together. If you DON’T love Christmas like I do, then I truly hope this book will help you “shake off” your Scrooge self and get in the true Spirit of Christmas. Merry Christmas! Enjoy it! In fact, enjoy all 40 days of it!”

—MIKE HUCKABEE, nationally syndicated tv talk show host and New York Times bestselling author of The Three Cs That Made America Great

“I’ve always loved Christmas. The topics in this book remind me why.”

—ERIC METAXAS, host of nationally syndicated Eric Metaxas Radio Show, and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Letter to the American Church

“With this devotional Mrs. Sam and Kevin Sorbo have created something sorely needed in our world today. Celebrating Christmas for 40 days and beyond is one of the most glorious things a person could do! I love this!”

—JOHN RICH, country music singer-songwriter, record producer, owner of Redneck Riviera, host of FOX The Pursuit! and winner of Celebrity Apprentice

“There is no holiday in the calendar that is more celebrated than Christmas. The celebration of the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is something that needs to be, in my opinion, celebrated much much more. 40 days seems like a pretty good start. Kevin and Sam Sorbo have created this 40 day devotional book to honor the most important day in HIStory!”

—SCOTT HAMILTON, devoted to Jesus, and Olympic Gold Medalist

“Seeking to brighten your Christmas season? Let this devotional illuminate your heart with grace and truth!”

—PASTOR LUCAS MILES, host of Church & State with Lucas Miles, President of The Nfluence Network, Inc., founder of the American Pastor Project, and bestselling author of Woke Jesus and The Pagan Threat

“Whoever is jaded over Christmas is jaded over life. For such people, Mrs. Sam and Kevin Sorbo’s 40 Days of Advent reflections—on Christmas and much much more—are the perfect tonic, informative, refreshing, and inspiring.”

—OS GUINNESS, social critic, lead drafter of the Williamsburg Charter and The Global Charter of Conscience, and editor and author of over 30 books, including The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life

“Kevin & Sam have focused their brilliance and passion onto something so important: a call to arms for the soul of Christmas. Please read, learn, and apply.”

—DALLAS JENKINS, film and television director, writer and producer, and creator, director, co-writer, and executive producer of The Chosen

MRS. SAM SORBO (WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA) is a native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and attended Duke University before opting to travel the world pursuing a successful international fashion modeling career. This led to acting work. Sam performed in many films, like Bonfire of the Vanities and Twenty Bucks, and television, including Jag and Chicago Hope, before guest starring on Hercules, when Kevin Sorbo swept her off her feet. They married in 1998. Kevin suffered three strokes prior to their wedding, which prompted Sam to step back from her active career and tend to him instead.

Several years, two boys, and a girl later, Sam became an unlikely but impassioned advocate for home education. In addition to Christmas for Forty Days: A Christmastime Devotional for Families, Sam is the author of Parents’ Guide to Homeschool: Make Home Education Easy and Fun and They’re YOUR Kids: My Journey from Self-Doubter to Home School Advocate to empower parents to reimagine their children’s education standards and accept the responsibility, challenge, and immeasurable joy of personally teaching their own offspring. Sam also wrote Teach from Love, a school-year devotional for families that focuses on instilling godly virtues in our children. Of course, Kevin and Sam home educated their three children, graduating their youngest in Spring 2024.

Sam is also the author of Words for Warriors: Fight Back Against Crazy Socialists and the Toxic Liberal Left, Share the Light: 40 World-Changing Devotions and True Faith: Embracing Adversity to Live in God’s Light.

While she continues acting, producing, writing, and appearing as a guest in the media such as NEWSMAX, Sam hosts The Sam Sorbo Show daily and is a sought-after public speaker. She enjoys engaging her audiences in a new national dialog about how we define education as a nation and a culture.

Together, the Sorbos produced and starred in the surprise hit movie Let There Be Light, which Sam co-wrote, Kevin directed, and Sean Hannity executive produced. The film, which featured Dionne Warwick, Travis Tritt, and the Sorbo boys Braeden and Shane, highlighted faith, family, and forgiveness. The Sorbos’ latest film, Miracle in East Texas: A Tall Tale Inspired By An Absolutely True Story, is a romantic comedy about two con men and the biggest oil strike in history. With Sorbo Studios, they seek to elevate Christian values, inspire hope, and restore the Judeo-Christian American culture.
