Year after year, millions of people do their best to make the excitement and festivities of Christmas Day match the anticipation that precedes it. But what about the first Christmas? Why did it happen? And was anyone disappointed? This plan focuses on the wonder, mystery, and purpose of the first Christmas—challenging us to praise God for His goodness as we receive and remember His gift of salvation.

Spend five days with Dr. Ramesh Richard, president of RREACH (a Global Proclamation Ministry) and professor at Dallas Theological Seminary, as he reflects on three Christmas carols and offers pastoral insights on how you can maximize the meaning of Christmas this year.

The glory of God is something we have heard about but something we take for granted by virtue of its familiarity. This Christmas we hope that you will revisit this familiar yet poignant truth about God while allowing it to change some or all of your perspective.

In the middle of the craziness that the Christmas season brings, we need to remember why we celebrate: Jesus! Over the next 5 days, we'll look at the Christmas story to help us prepare our hearts and minds for this time of year.

The celebration of Jesus' birth during Christmas time is about much more than a single event. Long before the Son of God took His first breath here on earth, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit determined a plan that would provide the greatest gift to all humanity: Jesus, the perfect sacrificial Lamb of God. Join us in this 5-day devotional as we celebrate the Gift That’s Freely Given.

Our Saviour King came into this world not riding on a horse, surrounded by an army, wearing armor, or crowned with a golden crown. No, our Saviour came into the world as a baby, unexpected, unannounced, and unexceptionally. We hope that through this plan, as you reflect on the meaning of the birth of Jesus Christ, you’ll be reminded that Christmas isn’t just an event in history to be remembered.

The Christmas story is found in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. An Angel visits Mary to tell her that she would give birth to the Son of God. Jesus is born in Bethlehem. The shepherds come to see him, and the Magi from the east follow a star to Jesus.

Roma Downey, the beloved actress and New York Times bestselling author, offers reminders and encouragement that will help you speak words of hope to a hurting world. This stirring 5-day devotional based on her new book, Be An Angel, is the perfect offering for anyone looking to be uplifted. You’ll be delighted to discover inspiration for yourself—plus a little extra to make someone’s day.

What do Christians believe? Division and controversy seem to be rampant today, but for 2,000 years, Christ-followers have been unified in belief. The oldest confession of faith, the Apostles’ Creed, reminds and teaches us what we believe. In this reading plan, take a fresh look at the Apostles Creed, discovering the major beliefs of Christianity and how the Creed prepares us to share what we believe.

Christians are different. They can’t help it. When you’re born again and filled with the Spirit, it changes you. This leads to different values about right and wrong, and a different lifestyle to match it. This series of 5-day plans uses the 10 Commandments (following the classic Augustinian ordering) as a vehicle for an alternative, Christ-like morality and Jesus-way of living.
