1 Samuel 16:7

It seems we’re all in need of a good hug, real connection, and something delightful to celebrate right now. Our prayer is that this Advent devotional will offer you and your family a way to connect, learn about the real Christmas story, and celebrate Jesus’s birth with new traditions, dinnertime stories, bedtime conversations, and family activities. We hope this Christmas “hug” brings beautiful memories to your home this Advent season!

God is mysterious, eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God. Our lives, however, can become mundane, tedious, and cold. This 8-day study will renew your reverent awe toward our Creator, and inspire your worship to become more profound, spontaneous, and authentic. Explore the wonder of the nature of God, and learn why He deserves our unabashed worship and adoration! This plan is written by Amy Groeschel, and is a part of her SOAR with God study.
