Advent

At Christmastime it can be easy to get carried away with materialism and focus on extravagant gifts and lavish dinners. In this 5-day reading plan, Trevor Hudson reminds readers to consecrate their lives to God and to focus on Him. Each day features Scriptures, a reflection for the day and a “daily practice”. The content for this reading plan is based on Trevor Hudson’s “Towards a Closer Walk with God”.

John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus's life and ministry. This 5-day series traces John's testimony through readings from the Gospels. Just as John was sent to prepare the way for Jesus and point people to him, we have the privilege of also pointing others to Christ. As you prepare for Christmas, these devotionals will help you see how you can be a vessel of God’s love.
