Advent

Christmas and Easter—two meaningful seasons help us celebrate Jesus’ birth and resurrection.  Now make the days in between special, too, with One on One: 100 Days with Jesus. Walk with Jesus in Advent (30 days), in His Ministry (35 days), in His Passion (35 days).  Begin during Advent—finish around Easter. Be inspired every day to know and love Jesus more as He connects with people, one on one. 

One On One: 100 Days With Jesus--ADVENT

Advent is a season of reflection, preparation, and anticipation for the coming of Jesus Christ. The Book of Exodus, on the other hand, chronicles the Israelites' arduous journey out of slavery in Egypt and their quest for the Promised Land. While these two may seem unrelated at first glance, through this plan we discover how Exodus foreshadows Jesus' miraculous birth over a millennium later, and what we can learn from the Hebrews' period of trust in waiting, even today.

Noel: Christmas Is For Everyone

The Bible often tells us that Jesus was “moved with compassion.” What does that mean, and how can it inform our lives today? At Christmas, we focus on one of Jesus’ biggest moves of all: He became flesh and “moved into the neighborhood” (John 1:14). This Advent, we invite you to explore your global neighborhood and see how Jesus continues to move with compassion in the world today.

Jesus truly does change everything. There is a dazzling beauty in the imagery the Bible paints around the life of Jesus, and how He brings light to even the hardest moments of life. If you need something to change in your life, this is for you! Jesus is a beacon of hope piercing the night, sparkling on the dark horizon as we pitch and yaw through stormy waters. Come on this transformative journey as we read some of the most compelling descriptors of Jesus. Jesus can bring change into every area of your life.

In this Advent season, it is a meanigful time for us, as Gentile believers in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to ask ourselves: what is our identity? Are we rooted in the whole word of God – including the prophecies of the Old and New Testaments? Are we looking for the coming of the Messiah, the Light of the world (John 8:12), who will reign from Jerusalem 'in the midst of His people Jacob'? Join us for daily reflections this Advent as we prepare our hearts and look forward with anticipation.
