Lucas 1:30

Slow down and savor time with the Savior this season. Choose to pause and ponder as Mary did, to get lost in the wonder of Immanuel, of God with us. This year, let it be simply Christmas.

We’re filled with anticipation as we lean into this season of celebration with the intention of tuning into the heart of God. Join us for 4 weeks as we: Behold Beauty, Break Barriers, Make Room, and are Surprised by God. Like all the best stuff in life, this journey is best taken with others—so grab a friend or two and your sense of wonder and roll into the Advent Season.

Advent: ‘n verwagting, iets wat gaan kom. Jy tel die dae totdat dit gebeur. God wou ons verras; om ‘n “geskenk” te stuur — Jesus! Voor Sy geboorte, het profete reeds voorspel dat iets deur God gestuur gaan word, 'n “takkie” vanuit koning Dawid se stamboom. Tradisie word soms steeds gevolg deur die gebruik van kerse wat hoop, vrede, vreugde en liefde verteenwoordig.

The story of Christ's birth is central to our celebration of Christmas. This reading plan chronicles the humble beginnings of a Savior the world had been anticipating for centuries. This short collection of readings connects us to the arrival of Emmanuel, a God who is with us.
