The World Rejoices: The Good News of Christmas Devotional

We often come into the Christmas season tired, anxious, and overwhelmed. If you can relate, take twenty-five days to focus on God’s promise that brings lasting peace, comfort, and joy.

The World Rejoices is a practical resource for individuals and families, encouraging a slower December pace while counting down the days to Christmas. Each short daily reflection and Scripture reading from the first two chapters of the Gospel of Luke guides you toward a deeper connection with Jesus and a meaningful understanding of the Christmas story. Engaging activities interspersed throughout the book will give you a few minutes to unwind and enjoy the season.

Authors Eliza Huie, Cyndi Logsdon, Brook Taylor, and Ashley Arey offer unique perspectives on the stories of God’s faithfulness in a way that will focus your heart on Jesus and will encourage you to embrace a season of anticipation, reflection, and preparation for the celebration of Jesus’s birth. 

• The voices of four authors with varied backgrounds and experiences give the devotional a unique mix of perspectives that collaborate to tell one main story.
• Activities are fun for adults and children and engage a wide range of readers—young and old, individuals and families.
• Can be used for individual study, small groups, or family devotions.
