Through this 25-day Advent devotional, enjoy daily readings that help you slow down, savor the season, and deepen your relationship with Jesus--from the bestselling author of The Deeply Formed Life.
The holidays often feel like a marathon, as we dash from one event, errand, or party to another. In the busyness, it's easy to neglect what really matters: reflecting on the glory of Jesus. We want to pray more--to spend time with God--but the tyranny of the urgent leaves us distracted and depleted. In this twenty-five-day devotional, pastor and author Rich Villodas guides you through reflections, prayers, and prompts to help you slow down, connect with God, and rediscover peace this Advent season. Each day offers space for personal reflection, preparing your heart for Jesus's arrival and culminating in a final devotional on Christmas Day. Amid the noise of the season, these biblical truths invite you into the joy and peace Christ brings. Let this be a time of holy longing and heartfelt rejoicing as you welcome him anew. Each day in this devotional features a short reflection from Rich, followed by a four-fold rhythm:- Silence and prayer Pause for a few moments. Take a breath. Rest.
- Scripture Read a short passage about the wonder of Jesus.
- Quotes Read short, inspiring thoughts from Christians through the ages.
- Self-reflection Bring your full self to God and enjoy his presence.
As you journey with Rich Villodas through Advent, reclaim joy and wonder as you behold the wondrous love of God.
