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.

Our prayer is that the project will help ground you in the unsurpassable beauty, mystery, and miracle of the Word made flesh.
