On a quiet Christmas Eve in Marshpoint, a young boy named Bristo Hudson is given a green vest, a second chance, and a calling he never expected. At ten years old, Bristo isn't sure he believes in Christmas anymore. But when he's invited to play a small role in the church's nativity pageant, everything begins to change. Under the soft glow of candlelight and the kindness of strangers, Bristo discovers that even the smallest light can lead to something beautiful. As the night unfolds, Bristo finds more than just a part in a play-he finds his voice, his faith, and the beginning of a family. And when it's time to carry the final candle, a quiet boy becomes a shining light in more ways than one. The Candlelight Promise is a heartwarming Bristo Hudson short story filled with hope, legacy, and the quiet strength of being chosen. Perfect for readers ages 8-14, this special Christmas edition features rich illustrations, a secret cipher message, a devotional tie-in, and bonus activities that bring Bristo's world to life.
