Christmas Tales from Tylerton Jimmy Stevens

Welcome to Tylerton, North Carolina, the county seat of Whitley County, but actually it is most anywhere you want it to be. You know exactly where it is; you've been there countless times in your imagination, or maybe you have even lived there. Tylerton, like all the folks you will meet there, is in actuality a compilation of many places and many people. I have been privileged to have taught Sunday School for more than thirty-five years, during which time the Lord has greatly blessed me with wonderful, supportive classmates. Several years ago I decided to write a short story to read to the class on the Sunday before Christmas. The class was extremely encouraging and the Lord continued to give me ideas, so the annual Christmas story has become a tradition. In this book are twelve of those stories. Some of them are based on actual events; some are completely fictional works. With a couple of exceptions, I'll leave it to you to decide which are which.
