Robin Wilson God Is with Us - [large Print]: Scriptures for the Church Seasons

God Is With Us, originally published in 2016, invites you to explore your longing for Gods presence through a study of the lectionary Bible readings for Advent and Christmas. The hope of Advent is the fulfillment of that longing we await the coming of Jesus as Immanuel, God With Us. Each weeks Scriptures call us to praise God as we actively await the coming of Christ and prepare our hearts and lives for his arrival. Through the readings, we hear the invitation to claim and celebrate the new hope we have in Jesus Christ. The season of Advent offers opportunities to prepare for Gods coming in human form in the infant Jesus and for the fulfillment of Gods kingdom with the second coming of Christ. Hope is the focus of Advent worship, study, and prayer. We will discover the light that began in the manger, which continues as we look forward with hope to Christs return. God Is With Us is based on the Revised Common Lectionary Scriptures for church year A, the first of a threeyear cycle of Bible readings. The study includes commentary and reflection on readings from the Old Testament, the Gospels, and the Epistles. It offers the opportunity to explore these Bible readings in a fivesession study. It will help participants understand, appreciate, and engage in meaningful and joyous celebrations of Advent and Christmas and to live each day in Gods hope through Jesus Christ. | Robin Wilson God Is with Us - [large Print]: Scriptures for the Church Seasons
