U‐Yisaya 11:1

How is Christmas celebrated around the world? Over the next 5 days, we’ll learn from other cultures how they prepare for and celebrate the birth of our Savior. Included in each devotion is a family activity to incorporate in your family’s traditions.

What does it mean for both heaven and nature to sing? How does the Advent season reflect the reality that Jesus came not only to save the world but to save the entire cosmos? This plan walks us through five days of reflecting on these truths during Advent.
