Description

Advent is the perfect time for families to gather together and celebrate the birth of Jesus. Using pictures of Jesus from Isaiah's prophecies the Light, the Branch, the Shepherd, and the Savior brings to life the true meaning of Christmas.

Hundreds of years before Jesus was born, God spoke to his people through the prophet Isaiah, promising them a Savior. To communicate God's message, Isaiah used striking, stunning, and surprising imagery the "wonders" of his love! Isaiah pointed God's people to the future, when one day, through his birth, death, and resurrection, Jesus would deliver his people from sin and sorrow forever.

Perfect for busy families with younger children, each week of Advent focuses on one of Isaiah's images and has readings related to the week's theme Jesus the Light; Jesus the Branch; Jesus the Shepherd; Jesus the Savior and, on Christmas Day, Jesus the Bread. Each week also includes fun stories, discussion questions, crafts, recipes, games, and suggestions for family service projects.

Written by Champ Thornton and illustrated by Jeremy Slagle, this four-week devotional will draw families closer to Jesus and to each other.

"With all the noise that competes for our attention during the holidays, it is easy to miss the reason why Christmas exists in the first place: God broke into our world, became one of us, and walked among us, all with a view toward 'mak(ing) his blessings flow, far as the curse is found.'
