Twelve Daily Christmas Devotionals

Twelve Daily Christmas Devotionals

Christmas is a time when the glory of the incarnation should ignite joy within our hearts. Unfortunately, as each year passes by, our familiarity with the Christmas story can dull our spiritual senses. For this reason, I believe it’s wise for Christians to make a habit of reading a new Advent devotional each year. While the Christmas decorations, traditions, and music will often be familiar sights and sounds, a new Advent devotional can help bring a fresh yet biblical perspective to help stir our hearts anew.

The Apostle John describes a beautiful vision of what worship will look like in heaven, writing, “After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb…” Have you ever thought about how one of the “languages” represented in heaven will be American Sign Language? There will be people praising God with a loud voice in heaven who used to talk with their hands on earth.
