Christmas Plans

Does comparison steal your holiday joy? Do you feel constant pressure to look better, be better, or have better things during the holiday season? If you've ever felt discouraged after scrolling social media or disheartened after learning about a friend's fabulous holiday--stress not! This plan is for you. Author and podcast host Heather Creekmore takes you on a 4-day practical and relatable journey to help you enjoy a comparison-free Christmas.

Have a Comparison-Free Christmas

Based on the wise men’s journey to worship Jesus as found in Matthew’s gospel, author Janet Surette invites you to slow down, notice, and celebrate the divine fingerprints in the details of the account. 
 
Through this study, rediscover God’s call to the wise men, their response, and how God is drawing you to Himself this Christmas season.
 
This plan was inspired by the kids book “The Christmas Quest”.
