Story
The Bible teaches us the real story of Christmas. The problem is people have taken this story and added onto it. Cultures have added on to it. It’s passed through countries, and they’ve tacked on their little spin. We have thousands of years of a Christmas that is built around legends and myths. The Christmas we know is, in places, more a fairy-tale. It’s an inspiring one for sure. But a fairy-tale, nonetheless. This book helps us slow down and unpack the layers so we can see just how beautiful this gift really is.

Spend time in the funny, oddball village of Arnold Falls, where larger-than-life characters deal with the smallest of problems. Somehow, it all comes out right in the end. Given the choice of go big or go home, nine times out of 10 the townspeople of Arnold Falls will go home, get back into their house slippers, and forget about the whole thing, whatever the whole thing was this time. Tempests great and small (mostly small) are always brewing in this tiny, upstate hamlet where half of the residents are fighting to preserve Arnold Falls as it was in its red-light-district heyday.

Story
We know that the goal of the Christian life is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever. While this is God's ultimate plan, does he have a particular purpose for the cell-based church? I've been wrestling with this question for the past 22 years. This question confronts me every time I coach a pastor or pastors. In preparation for coaching, I ask myself, "What is my principal objective in helping this pastor?", "Where am I guiding this church?", and "What am I trying to do?". I've come to the conclusion that the primary goal of cell ministry is to make disciples who make disciples.

Funny, enchanting, and heart-wrenching.
If you could sum up Savvy Stories: Funny Things I Learned from My Daughter in three words, what would they be?
In Savvy Stories, Dan tells stories about life as a middle-aged man raising his first child, and a girl no less. We go through the parent's struggle in conceiving, carrying, and having a child, then follow the father through all the ups and downs of raising said child.
What did you like best about this story?
The stories are funny, informational, heart-wrenching, and relatable, even for someone like me who doesn't have any children. My husband and I are nearing forty...wow, that was hard to write. Anyway, we don't plan to have children, but if we did, I could see this as our life. The uniqueness of this story is that this couple isn't in their twenties. They are raising their first child in a point in their life when most of their siblings and friends are preparing for grandchildren.
