Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Luke 2:9

You know, it’s funny. When we read Bible stories, we tend to view the characters as supernatural beings – heroes at the least and almost perfect people close to deities at the most. Neither is probably true. Oh sure, they accomplished heroic deeds and are worthy of admiration, but the truth is they were humans, just like us, with all our foibles and failures, fears, and worries. Maybe it’s time to see them for who they really are and experience what it might have been like to witness firsthand the true Christmas miracle.

This Bible reading plan guides you through the Advent season by focusing on God's promises fulfilled through Scripture. Each day includes Bible reading and a devotion that leads you through God's Word, helping you to reflect on God's faithfulness and the hope of Christmas.

Join Paul Tripp for 25 days leading up to Christmas in "The Everyday Gospel Christmas Devotional." Designed to be used during the Advent season, this devotional provides the perfect way to close out 2024 together and prepare your heart as we begin the new year immersed in God’s word.

This 25-day Advent devotional was created from CornerstoneSF's video devotional series, Rise & Shine. With videos every day except Sundays, this devotional invites us to open our hearts and prepare for the coming of Jesus. It will begin broadly and then focus deeply on Mary’s experience, highlighting how her humility, faith, and openness paved the way for Christ’s birth. Through her example, we are encouraged to cultivate a heart ready to receive the Savior, embracing His love and presence in our lives.

Advent is a church tradition to help believers across the globe prepare their hearts for the arrival of Jesus. Over four weeks, we’ll look at themes of hope, peace, joy, and love in the biblical narrative leading up to Jesus’ birth, and how these themes can be applied to our Christmas season this year.

The Christmas season can be an incredibly stressful time of the year. With all the busyness of the Holidays, it’s easy to lose focus on the true meaning of Christmas, the coming of our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ. The Christmas at Graystone Bible Reading Plan continues our study through the gospel of Luke and helps keep our focus on the life and teaching of Jesus Christ.

Join us this Christmas Season by diving into God's word each day as we celebrate the birth of Jesus!
