Advent is the four Sundays leading up to Christmas Day. It starts sometime between Nov. 27 and Dec. 3. In 2024, Advent begins on Dec. 1.

Advent is a chance to remember the long wait for the promised Messiah and to look for His second coming.

Take some time this December to remind your family of the true meaning of Christmas.

“Simple Ways to Focus on Christ This Christmas” is a 15-minute workshop by Nancy Ruth of Parent Road Ministries. Let's talk about some easy ways to use Christmas sights and sounds to bring kids back to the Bible.

We have several Advent family devotionals to choose from:
