How will you prepare, wait, and journey to Bethlehem this year? What kind of messiah are you expecting to meet at the manger? What messiah are your searching for? Sometimes we know a few of the biblical stories so well, like the Christmas and Easter stories, that we embellish portions or skip over portions. This year, read closely and spend some time with the stories. Note what is not part of the biblical story, but is a layer of tradition’s story about the biblical story.
The Regional Youth Council has created an Advent Devotional book. Some members of RYC have written on the traditional Advent themes: hope, peace, joy, and love. This is an eBook for all ages. Click here to download it.
Be well and find your center as you give thanks, and turn your attention to Advent as the story about Jesus of Nazareth begins again.
