Eight-year-old Jamie Lynn Brooks is a precocious child with a loving disposition. During the Christmas season, she is visited by two spirits – the Spirit of Innocence and the Spirit of Discernment. Both bless her with special abilities and act as her guardian angels in the spirit realm. Her only wish for Christmas is that her incarcerated mother is released from prison and can come home for the holidays. But with her mother’s unruly conduct behind bars, it will take a miracle. Armed with a refreshing innocence and a discerning spirit, Jamie offers the best gift for the season- the invitation to believe in Jesus Christ and the miracles He can perform. This holiday season turns out to be like none the family has ever seen before, with family and friends realizing the true meaning of the Christmas season and embracing the spirit that knowledge brings.

THE FORGOTTEN SPIRIT is an incredible story of love, faith and hope. Rhodes message is clearly shared in this heartwarming tale of how all Christmases need to be observed – in the spiritual realm instead of the natural commercialized realm. Beautifully written, with fully developed characters that all come full-circle, I was deeply touched. This is a must read to shared with family and friends during the holidays.
