The devotional Advent Calendar is a great way to help your congregation stay focused on Christ more fully this Christmas season. Encourage married couples or singles, families or friends, to use this resource daily during Advent as a practical way to follow up on your sermons and make Christlike connections during the holidays.

Beginning on the fourth Sunday before Christmas and continuing through the 12th day of Christmas, the tabletop Advent Calendar provides: a manageable plan for creating a Christ-centered Christmas season; daily scripture readings that help you experience the Christmas touch, inspirational quotes and hymns that point to the Christ child, practical suggestions for Advent activities to deepen your experience of the season, innovative ideas for families with children as well as for couples and singles, simple but meaningful candlelighting ceremonies for children and adults and discussion questions for significant holiday conversations with family and friends.
