Christmas is more than twinkling lights and Santa Claus. It’s the time each year that we celebrate the birth of Jesus. It is a joyful season because God sent His promised Son to restore God’s relationship with mankind. The Bible starts with the creation of the world and each following page whispers the coming of Jesus. When Jesus was born, he fulfilled prophecies of God’s love coming down from heaven so all mankind can find hope. Take some time with your family these next 10 days and experience this beautiful and perfect hope:

Birth & Reign of the Prince of Peace: Isaiah 9:1-7
The Coming Birth of John the Baptist: Luke 1:1-25
The Coming Birth of Jesus: Luke 1:26-45
Jesus Is Born: Luke 2:1-21
Joseph and Mary Take Jesus to the Temple: Luke 2:22-40
The Wise Men Visit Jesus: Matthew 2:1-12
