Advent

In this Study, we will investigate Jesus’ arrival as King, Priest, and Sacrifice. Through studying these roles, we will not only be able to see the true meaning of Christmas, but also have a fuller understanding of the story of the Bible and how God becoming Man and being born as a Baby is Good News for us today!

The Gift

This year, as we face a different kind of Christmas following a very hard year, we all need reminders that our joy begins (and ends) with the love displayed from the manger to the cross. Jesus’ birth on that seemingly unremarkable Bethlehem night is our hope for today. Even as there’s pain in the night, joy still comes from a baby born that first Christmas morning. 

Joy Comes in the Morning

The reflections in this Advent reading plan will help readers to draw close to the Lord this Christmas. As you consider Christ’s miraculous birth and the privilege of knowing Him, you will find your life, love, hope and joy renewed. Each of the five days features a Bible verse, a reflection for the day and a short prayer.

Finding God in Advent

"Hope in the Shadows" is a 3-day Bible reading plan that invites us to reflect on bringing hope through generosity. Each day centers on how our actions can shine God’s light in a world of need. Through scriptures and reflections, we’re encouraged to serve others with compassion, embody Christ’s love, and uplift those in darkness, especially during the Christmas season. Let God’s light shine through you.

Hope in the Shadows

The Christmas story is so familiar to those young and old. The manger scenes, shepherds, and wise men are all a part of a narrative that has been retold for over two thousand years. It’s easy to think it has nothing new to teach us. Yet, the word of God is living and active - it works in us in new ways every time we digest it. -Vertical Worship

Every good story has a plot twist—an unexpected moment that changes everything. One of the biggest plot twists in the Bible is the Christmas story. Over the next five days, we’ll explore how this one event changed the world and how it can change your life today.

Let's Prepare for Christmas!

We hate to admit it, but after years of reading the same story of Christmas, we get a little bored—we lose some of the awe that we had the first time. That's why The Characters of Christmas was written, to give you a fresh look at the Christmas story by getting to know the characters that played a part in Jesus' birth and restore awe to the Christmas story.
