Through the mysteries of the messengers, the manger, and the star, we discover that Christmas is not just about gifts. It’s about the birth of Jesus, that God is with us, and Christmas is a time to worship Him.

Christmas is always so fun! The festive music, the twinkly lights, and the beauty of the holiday enchants us from a young age. But what is at the heart of it all? Adore is a festive, 15 day devotional for teenage girls. It is brimming with biblical content about Jesus and the history of Advent.

Discover Christmas! God's plan from the beginning was Jesus, Jesus is good news to all people and Jesus shows us how much God loves us.

Our kind of Christmas isn’t working. The status quo of our holiday season pushes us into busyness, distraction, and exhaustion instead of the rest and relief that Jesus came to bring. This Plan redirects us to God’s kind of Christmas, where we slow down, catch our breath, read everything the gospels say about the birth of Jesus, and remember everything that is ours through faith in our Prince of peace.

Advent comes from the Latin adventus , meaning “arrival, approach.” During this season leading up to Christmas, we reflect on the longing of God’s people for the Messiah, which was fulfilled in the arrival of Jesus—God made flesh, Light from Light, wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger. Advent has another purpose, too: drawing our spiritual gaze toward the future when, as we affirm in the Nicene Creed, Jesus “will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.” This resource will guide you through both aspects of Advent reflection.

In this 18 day plan, you'll take a dive into scripture and discover the true hope of Christmas.

This three week plan walks us through the timeless wonder of how God came to us through His son, Jesus. The plan is designed to begin on a Monday so that each weekend will include shorter content meant for rest and reflection during the holiday season. Join us as we study what the birth of Christ means for our future, present, and past.

What does Christmas mean to you? Spend 20 days recounting the Bible's Christmas story from Old Testament passages and the Gospels. Slow down, worship Jesus, and cherish Him by faith. Receive and rejoice in God's greatest gift. Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh to dwell among us. All who believe may be re-born to dwell with God now and forever.

If "juggling," "multi-tasking", or "harried" are the words that describe your days, this plan might be just what you are looking for. The Bible records these words of Jesus, "My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life." (John 10:10NLT). By exploring the lives of some famous and some not-so-famous women of the Bible, you'll gain insight and tools to trade your "just-get-through-it life" for the "rich and satisfying life" Jesus promised.
