Lukas 1:45

The story of Christ's birth is central to our celebration of Christmas. This reading plan chronicles the humble beginnings of a Savior the world had been anticipating for centuries. This short collection of readings connects us to the arrival of Emmanuel, a God who is with us.

I denne bibelleseplanen lener vi oss på kirkeårets tekster, og på rytmen av fastetid som strekker seg frem til påske. Fastetiden er som en indre vårrengjøring. Gjennom fastetiden blir lyset sterkere og dagene lengre. Under snøen forbereder naturen seg på at livet skal spire. På samme måte kan vi gjøre indre forberedelser/oppdagelser, for å oppleve at Guds gode gaver spirer frem i livet.

The birth of Christ, His advent, marks God's ultimate plan for our redemption. In Christ, we see the fullest picture of God's hope, peace, joy and love. God's Word is the truth by which we know and walk with Him daily. It is our hope that this guide will encourage and facilitate personal time spent in the Word and provide a resource for families with children to do that together.

Christmas is truly the greatest story ever told: one of God’s perfect faithfulness, power, salvation, and unfailing love. Let’s take a journey over the next 25 days to discover God’s intricate plan to save the world from sin and the promises fulfilled in the birth of His Son.
