Advent 2022 -- The Story of Christmas

Advent 2022 -- The Story of Christmas

This is the capstone of our Advent: Waiting for Our Blessed Hope reading guide sponsored by JustKeithHarris.com and Christ Community Church.

We love the devotional content we get to produce, but all of that pales in comparison to the surpassing worth of Christ and the way He reveals Himself through His Word and the working of His Spirit in the Word. So, this is the best content because it is straight from the Word. It has been carefully arranged chronological between all four gospels (you can see the written out copy here).

Merry Christmas! And God bless!
