Advent Devotions

Hey Friends,

I hope you are looking forward to December and preparations for the Christmas season. One of my key take aways from Paddy Wong’s sermon last Sunday “Prepare your heart for Advent” is that setting aside time to rest in God’s presence and not just “reading about the meaning of Christmas” is the key to having spiritual refreshment in these next weeks. That does not mean I don’t recommend devotional reading for Advent. Most Advent devotionals for 2023 will put Sunday Dec. 3 as Day 1. You don’t have to be rigid about it and can start earlier because I find for myself, it’s easy to have days so full we miss our reading.

We will have Advent devotionals available next Sunday. For those who can’t come in-person or for those who prefer an online devotional you can download them using the links below.

Pastor Nolan
