Publisher's Synopsis
A disheartened Chuck McBride travels to Ohio with hopes of finding his life's meaning after a series of hardships have unsettled his life. His Christmastime visit with old neighbors is plagued with doubt, but an unexpected mission project awakens his heart to the world beyond him. On a whim, Chuck selects an unassuming red backpack to load with school supplies and includes two favorite memories from his own childhood as a special treat. Will God really use Chuck's gift to answer a prayer? Could He actually do so? Might God answer the prayers of many individuals through this one red backpack and still continue to sow blessings from it many years later? From the patch-quilt field of Ohio to the mountain hollows of Appalachia, "The Christmas Backpack"goes beyond the lights, decorations, and songs of the Christmas season to show God's love for His children and how one act of obedience can change lives for His Kingdom forever.
