It’s the most wonderful time of the year, but we often find ourselves hustling through the holidays. This Christmas, what if we reclaimed wonder? In this 5-day Bible Plan accompanying Pastor Craig Groeschel’s series, The Gift, we’ll discover how the three gifts the wise men gave Jesus can lead us to a place of wonder and worship today.

We hate to admit it, but after years of reading the same story of Christmas, we get a little bored—we lose some of the awe that we had the first time. That's why The Characters of Christmas was written, to give you a fresh look at the Christmas story by getting to know the characters that played a part in Jesus' birth and restore awe to the Christmas story.

Watch this devotional plan to find out what you can do when the Christmas season isn't so happy and merry.

In this reading plan we will look at different names for the Son of God from the book of Isaiah. In the Old Testament, the prophet Isaiah announced the birth of Jesus, about 700 years before His birth. Different names are used for Him and each of these names reveals something of the heart of the Father. Written by Eric Celerier for A Miracle Every Day.

Times have changed. From two-income households to the external influences of social media, the family's demands have never been higher. Although parenthood has never been easy, fathers today face many more pressures than they did a few decades ago. In this plan, we explore "Daring Dads of the Bible" and how their journey can meet modern-day dad challenges.

Doubt wants us to believe that obedience to God is outdated and that application of scripture in our daily living is in vain. But God’s Word promises eternal treasures of joy and freedom when we not only hear God’s Word, but also obey. Joy and freedom result in our obedience and causes us to soar above the pulls and temptation of this world.

The Advent season typically brings joy and Christmas carols, but maybe this year has been hard for you. In this 5-day plan, you’ll discover how those present at the nativity scene responded to God in the midst of their circumstances, and how their stories can give you hope.

Our world in the best of times seems uncertain and upside down. If it wasn’t for Jesus, the Son of God, we would have no hope. Every Christmas reminds us that the gift of Immanuel—God with us—is a gift that keeps on giving. We are never alone, from now until eternity. That is worth celebrating.

Christmas is a time of joy, hope and love. As we get ready to celebrate, we are going to take a journey to Bethlehem and experience the story of Christmas to prepare our hearts to receive the greatest gift of all - Jesus.

In Isaiah 9:6, we see that Jesus is our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. In this 5-Day Plan, we'll celebrate the arrival of Jesus by learning about His different names, and how they apply to our lives today.
