Try an Advent Bible Reading Plan this Season

During the Christmas season, so much can pull us away from the significance of what we’re celebrating—the gift of Immanuel, “God with us.” Advent, spanning the four weeks before Christmas, brings us the opportunity to redirect our focus.

YouVersion is a great app for your phone, tablet or computer and one that I use every day.  This Christmas YouVersion offers several Bible Plans to help Jesus’ birth become a point of your daily reflection. And this year, we have 20 plans—more than ever before. Find the plan that’s just right for you—or try one with your family!

Rediscovering the Christmas Season offers a non-traditional twist on Advent, with reflection questions and action steps that help individuals, families, and small groups center each day on Christ. (25 days)
