Thus, two of the most important holidays correspond with his birth (Christmas) and his resurrection (Easter). The seasons leading up to these holidays – Advent and Lent – encourage us to take the time to reflect on the significance of these events, for the world and for our own lives. Seasonal devotionals can help provide a framework for this reflection, allowing us to enter into the true spirit of each season and grow closer to Jesus as we immerse ourselves in his story.

Our family Easter devotional books center around the story of Jesus’s life leading up to Easter, while our adult books for Lent delve into various aspects of Christ’s journey to the cross and our participation in his death and resurrection.
