Description

In her bestsellers Going Rogue and America by Heart, Sarah Palin revealed the strong Christian faith that has guided her life and family. Now, in Good Tidings and Great Joy, she calls for bringing back the freedom to express the Christian values of the season. She asserts the importance of preserving Jesus Christ in Christmas and laments the over-commercialization and homogenization of Christmas in today's society.

Palin believes it is imperative that we stand up for our beliefs and encourages readers to see what is possible when we unite in defense of our religious convictions and ignore the politically correct Scrooges seeking to take Christ out of Christmas. Good Tidings and Great Joy is a call to action to openly celebrate the joys of Christianity and to proudly say "Merry Christmas" to one another.
