The Promise Review and Giveaway *Over*

by

Disclosure: As a member of the FlyBy Promotions Blogger Network I received The Promise DVD to facilitate my review. Regardless, I only recommend products I feel would be good for my readers. My opinions are my own and those of my family. This post contains affiliate links. Please see my Disclosure Policy for more information.
The Promise
The Promise: The Birth of the Messiah is a beautifully animated musical that celebrates the birth of Jesus.
About The Promise:

This beautifully crafted musical is a faithful adaptation of the birth narrative from the Gospel of Luke in both story and song. The animated production leverages optical motion technology to blend traditional animation techniques with the performance talents of ballet dancers and dramatic stage actors. The result is a unique and worshipful story experience that will inspire audiences young and old for years to come.

Get a sneak peek in the movie’s trailer:

The Promise is presented by Glorious Films. More about Glorious Films:

Glorious Films is the home of high quality entertainment products created from a strong biblical worldview. The creative and technical teams are world-class and have come to from all over the globe. Their first film, The Promise, is an animated musical about the nativity story that will be released in 2013. The second film, The Prodigal, an animated musical based on the parable of the prodigal son, is in production for a Spring 2014 release.

We love The Promise! The animation is absolutely beautiful, and the musical style just adds that special touch. I was afraid it might be something my husband and I would enjoy a little more than the kids because of our appreciation for art and music, but the kids were really into the movie as well. They may not have noticed the fine details in the animation like we did, but they really enjoyed the style and the music! It is also just the right length for even younger kids to enjoy!
Of course, we love how The Promise is the story of the true meaning of Christmas. It starts from the very beginning right before Mary was told she was chosen to be the mother of the Messiah. From the very beginning it is made known that Jesus is the promise everyone has been waiting for, and it is a big celebration when He arrives.
I think it is a beautiful way to share the true Christmas story with your family. I love that it follows the Gospel of Luke – it’s a Bible story that has come to life in such a beautiful way! If you’re looking to share what Christmas is truly about or just want to add a beautiful Christmas movie to your collection, I think The Promise is a great movie to do so!
You can purchase The Promise on Amazon for $14.99

YumEarth Stocking Stuffers {Organic Gummies Review and Giveaway *Over* (ended 12/6)}

by

YumEarth
Our kids LOVE YumEarth, and so do we! We’re very cautious about the ingredients we use, and food dyes are a big caution in our household. As you may know, all three of our children have special needs. There is a lot of improvement with a healthy diet. We noticed food dyes led to hyperactivity, and for our youngest it often meant late nights or restless nights as well! With Christmas around the corner out come all the treats and candies with one of the worst offenders – Red 40.
Sure it’s nice to see Christmas colored candies, but is it worth the cost? For our family it isn’t! Yet yummy treats are perfect for stocking stuffers aren’t they? That is why we love YumEarth! There are no artificial dyes, and they have a taste our kids love! YumEarth also offers quite a variety of tasty treats! Check out our other reviews for their Organic Gummy Bears, Organic Fruit Snacks, and Organic Lollipops! There isn’t anything from YumEarth our kids don’t like! They recognize the logo and are always excited to have some YumEarth treat!
Your kids will be delighted to find YumEarth Organic Gummy Worms and Gummy Bears in their stockings, too! These little bags are the perfect size for stocking stuffers! Because YumEarth is free of high fructose corn syrup, artificial dyes and sweeteners, you can feel good about them, too!
Good news! Now YumEarth is available at more stores than before as they are now available at over 7,000 Walgreens stores! This is in addition to all the great locations in which they are already available! Now it’s even easier to find YumEarth treats nearby!
