Advent

Everyone seems to say that Christmas is about love. This Bible plan contains the first 3 daily readings from Sinclair B Ferguson's new Advent devotional Love Came Down At Christmas. Ferguson reflects deeply on the famous 'love passage' 1 Corinthians 13 and brings the rich theology of the incarnation to life with his trademark warmth and clarity. 

Love Came Down At Christmas

Advent is, of course, a time to prepare. To prepare our homes, lives, and our hearts. Join us as we explore the Bible readings used by the Church to challenge, encourage, and help us prepare, not only to celebrate the incarnation but also the second coming of Christ.

Advent: Catholic Reflections

Biola University's Center for Christianity, Culture & the Arts is pleased to share the annual Advent Project, a daily devotional series celebrating the beauty and meaning of the Advent season through art, music, poetry, prayer, Scripture, and written devotions.  The project starts on the first day of Advent and continues through Epiphany. Our goal is to help individuals quiet their hearts and enter into a daily routine of worship and reflection during this meaningful but often hectic season. Our prayer is that the project will help ground you in the unsurpassable beauty, mystery, and miracle of the Word made flesh.
