The Whole Christmas Story
​This 25-day Advent devotional journey from the London Institute for Contemporary Christianity will help you explore on the significance of Jesus’ birth in the context of the whole Bible. Starting in Genesis and working through to Revelation, you’ll see how Christ came to a world worth saving; how human sin affects every part of life; how God promised to redeem all of his creation; and how in Jesus, he made good on that promise.
​
And throughout Advent, you’ll reflect on how God is calling you to live in a way that contributes to his redeeming work in the world, ushered in by Jesus’ birth.
