Advent is a time of preparing our hearts for Christmas Day by remembering and anticipating everything the birth of Jesus accomplished, and all the long-awaited promises that were fulfilled. It is our hope that as individuals or as families, you will set aside time this season to remember not only that Jesus came, but why he came!

This year, we are reading “Good News of Great Joy” by John Piper together. Download a free digital copy below, or follow along on YouVersion. We are also offering a Kids Advent guide created by Lifeway, Behold the Savior.

It is a season of preparation to ready our hearts for the glory of Christmas Day as we celebrate the coming of the eternal God in our frail humanity. These twenty-five short devotional readings from John Piper aim to help you keep Christ at the center of the Advent season.

Christmas is an exciting time where families can see how God has given us peace, joy, hope, and love! Each week’s devotion will explore one of these themes as you open the Bible as a family and read a part of the Christmas story. After you read the story, we have included discussion questions to help get the conversation started and connect this story from Scripture to your kids’ lives.
