Isaiah 49:7, 23

Biola University's Center for Christianity, Culture & the Arts is pleased to share the annual Advent Project, a daily devotional series celebrating the beauty and meaning of the Advent season through art, music, poetry, prayer, Scripture, and written devotions. The project starts on the first day of Advent and continues through Epiphany. Our goal is to help individuals quiet their hearts and enter into a daily routine of worship and reflection during this meaningful but often hectic season. Our prayer is that the project will help ground you in the unsurpassable beauty, mystery, and miracle of the Word made flesh.

In this series, we read and reflect on 14 names of Jesus – various titles he is given, and ways he his described. See from both Old Testament prophecy, and the Gospel accounts of his life, just who Jesus is through his names. Be encouraged as we approach the celebration of Jesus’ birth by reflecting on who he is – the marvellous complexity and depth of Jesus’ purpose and his character.

Jesus isn’t just a good teacher or a wise leader—he’s God in human form who came to change everything. In this 14-day plan, you’ll read through key moments in the Gospel of John that reveal who Jesus is and why it matters. As you walk through his life, death, and resurrection, you’ll see the kind of love and hope only he can offer—and what it means to fully follow him today.

In this BibleX study, you will explore the prophetic books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Hosea, Jonah, and Amos. You will study portions of Scripture, learn the key points by viewing a short video, and grow by applying the Scripture’s teachings to your life. BibleX is a free resource to help expand your knowledge of the Bible.
