Angry and heartbroken, he took to the streets and abandoned any belief he once had in God.Ten years later, Big Earl meets Gideon, a seven year old leukemia patient who believes with all her heart that 'Christmas means never having to ask God how much he loves us.' Gideon is determined to reach this lonely and hurting man who hates Christmas - and he is just as determined to rebuff her. It will take a miracle for Earl to understand the true meaning of Christmas. But, if he can understand what Gideon wants to give him, he might find that he can return the favour with a precious gift of his own.In GIDEON'S GIFT, Karen Kingsbury reminds us that Christmas is still a time of miraculous possibilities if only we reach out to those around us.
