Churched
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Every December, I love to find a new Advent devotional and/or revisit an older one. Below are a couple of recommendations.
Advent: The Once and Future Coming of Jesus Christ by Fleming Rutledge
Come Let Us Adore Him: A Daily Devotional for Advent by Paul David Tripp
The Dawning of Indestructible Joy: Daily Readings for Advent by John Piper
Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus: Experiencing the Peace and Promise of Christmas edited by Nancy Guthrie
Hidden Christmas: The Surprising Truth Behind the Birth of Jesus Christ by Tim Keller
Waiting Here for You: An Advent Journey of Hope by Louie Giglio
*Repeat the Sounding Joy: A Daily Advent Devotional from Luke 1-2 by Christopher Ash
*The Advent of the Lamb of God (Retelling the Story) by Russ Ramsey
*Celebrating Abundance: Devotions for Advent by Walter Brueggemann
*I have not read these titles, but trust the authors.
I also LOVE Christmas music! Here are several album recommendations that are fast becoming an “every year” must for me:
Andrew Peterson “Behold the Lamb of God”
Future of Forestry “Light Has Come”
Josh Garrels “The Light Came Down”
Shane and Shane “A Worship Initiative” Vol 1 & Vol 2
Chris Tomlin “Glory in the Highest”
Casting Crowns “It’s Finally Christmas”
Casting Crowns “Peace on Earth”
Lindsey Sterling “Warmer in the Winter”
A fantastic list (where I found several of these titles) can be found here.
