Connect modern traditions with Jesus' birth in this reading plan from: What's in the Bible? Santa Claus? Christmas trees? What do these things have to do with Jesus? More than you think! Each reading plan contains a video, Scripture reading, and short reflection. Based on Phil Vischer's Buck Denver Asks - Why Do We Call It Christmas?

Why Do We Call It Christmas?

Whatever December looks like for you, wherever you are, whoever you are with or not with, our hope is that you will set aside time every day over the next four weeks to open God’s Word. We will have short devotionals each day to help you reflect on the day’s reading. We pray that you will see Jesus in a new light this Christmas.


Christmas Advent Bible Reading Plan: Jesus Is Born

Journey through the 28 days of Advent by exploring every good gift that God has given through Scripture and stories from around the world. Walk through the themes of a good life, the good news, good deeds and good gifts found in the book of James.

Every Good Gift: A 28-Day Advent Devotional

Most of us like hearing a good story and the really good stories usually have a backstory. Backstories provide context for the main story and help us understand how the various pieces of that story are connected. The backstories surrounding Jesus’ birth are no different. Understanding the backstories of Jesus’ birth makes the events surrounding His arrival even more wondrous and the best part is, this story is true!

The Old Testament:  Backstory to Christmas

Advent is the first season of the Christian church year, leading up to Christmas. It's an amazing celebration of anticipation for the birth of our Saviour! Advent celebrates four main themes: hope, love, joy and peace. Learn more about each of these topics and where they're found in the Christmas story in this four-week advent devotional series.

Meditations on the Meaning of Christmas

From choosing a humble handmaiden as His mother, to announcing His birth to common shepherds, the way the Lord chose to come to earth reveals what His heart beats for. This seven-day plan delves into the humility of mighty God revealed in the meaning of Christmas.


The Heart of God

Christmas is a time to pause, ponder, and praise the gift Jesus. Rather than succumbing to the unwanted burden of financial and social obligations, we must intentionally seek stillness to hear the voice of God. Much of our loss of peace comes with the financial pressures we feel when the emphasis of the season is on buying gifts.This plan will help you focus on what really matters at Christmas.

Seeking Contentment at Christmas

John the Baptist played an important role in the life of Jesus with the urgency of “God is about to move, so be ready!” and the greater baptism of Jesus in the Holy Spirit as the primary marker for God’s new covenant people. John knew his identity in Christ. Readers will discover how they can learn from John to be all that God created them to be.
