Isaiah 8:10-12

It is our nature. We each so desperately desire to know every step of every plan for our life but it so rarely works out that way. Why so often do the plans we work hardest on seem to collapse while others seem to flourish? Which of these are our plans and which are God’s? In this reading plan you will hear God’s word, prayers, and reflection from four different authors on this topic. What is God’s plan for our life and how we can find comfort and peace knowing He is guiding us on his path?

This Advent Guide comes from students, faculty, and staff at Belmont University. Advent is that season of waiting that carefully and purposefully helps us to realign our priorities and to glimpse, anew, our place before God. Our humble hope is this guide helps people focus more fully on Jesus Christ through the Advent season.
