The word Advent means arrival, and it refers to the arrival of Jesus Christ into the world. The “Advent season” usually starts four weeks before Christmas, and concludes with the celebration of Christ’s birth. Some emphasize the Advent season more than others, but all Believers look forward to celebrating Christ’s birth during this season of the year. Studying Scripture during Advent can help focus your Bible reading, reflection, and prayer. It is far more than simply counting down to Christmas!
This five-week Advent devotionalincludes focus passages from Scripture, application sections, and weekly challenges to help you live out what you’ve learned. Take the month of December to quiet your heart and focus on the Lord and the gift that God gave us — the birth of His Son. May these five weeks encourage you during the Christmas season, and may you find rest in God’s Word!
