The season of Advent is about to begin, a time for the Church to look back in celebration of the birth of Jesus, and to look ahead as we anticipate His return.
A reading plan can be a great guide to help keep focus on the Lord through this often busy time of year. Here are a few free guides we've found online.
For a couple downloadable options, check out "Good News of Great Joy" and "The Dawning of Indestructible Joy," available in various formats from Desiring God. Each one contains 25 meditations.
A 31-day Advent Scripture reading plan is available to follow with a free ESV.org account. You can also receive each day's verses via e-mail.
And for kids, "The Jesus Storybook Bible" has a free downloadable Advent kit, which includes music, coloring pages, ornaments, memory verse cards and more.
Take advantage of any of these resources, or your own daily time in Scripture, to remind yourself, your family and others around you of Who we truly celebrate. I pray you find great joy and encouragement in remembering all we have now and all we have to look forward to in Jesus.
