Advent Project

The story of Jesus’ birth and the events preceding and immediately after it are mostly treated as “information” both inside and outside of the church.  This study tries to replace that concept with a focus on Jesus’ infancy as first and foremost as a potentially transformative experience.  In other words, while the birth of Jesus is about what God has done for us, it is equally important to understand what God (Through Jesus) wants to do with and through us because of Jesus’ coming.

Over a 9 week study, we will read the biblical “birth” narratives of Jesus, while challenging ourselves to make connections to Jesus’ “Easter” narratives.

This study will also include elements of “discipleship exercises” that will push us to focus our energies on seeking transformation, rather than just information.

A devotional guide, journal, and commentary will be provided to each participant digitally once they are registered. (If you need us to physically print it out for you, we can do that too.  No problem – Just ask!)
