Advent
The Nativity Scene
One of the many Christmas traditions for families is to set out a nativity scene depicting the birth of Jesus. Usually, we see Mary, Joseph, shepherds, sheep, and wise men surrounding a tiny baby in a manger. It’s a picturesque scene to remind us of Jesus’ birth. But our familiarity with the nativity scene can cause us to forget the humanity of each person present on that special night.
The Healing Jesus: An Advent Devotional to Encourage Anybody and Everybody
Amidst all the hustling to get stuff done during the Christmas season, we invite you to pause daily and meet 25 Bible Characters (some well-known, some not-so-well-known) that Jesus brought healing to.

Christmas: The Divine Interruption
When Jesus was born into human existence, it was the most epic interruption to human history that has ever happened. God loves us enough to punctuate history in human skin; not as a king, president, or noble warrior, but as a helpless newborn. This reading plan studies the people surrounding Christ’s birth and their response to (or role in) this divine interruption on the timeline of history.
Advent: I Love Christmas

Use the “Application Questions” for groups to center the conversation on Jesus. And, for families, use “Next Steps”, to find creative ways to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas.
