Growing up, my mom often made an event of advent, having interactive calendars for me and my brother to follow each day of December leading up to Christmas. I once bought a book that was a compilation of 31 devotionals based on Christmas hymns, but most of the hymns I had never even heard of.
Earlier this fall, I heard Heather Borersma was writing an eBook focused on advent devotions. I was thrilled when she sent me a copy of her new eBook last week. I have been looking it over and am so excited to dig in!
She uses Scripture in each day's devotional reading, dividing the weeks up into four sections: Hope, Peace, Joy and Love. The layout of the book is beautiful, with four full color pages for each section.
Guess what?! You can win a copy of Heather's eBook, We Will Wait: An Advent Devotional Guide! To enter the giveaway, use rafflecopter below.

I would love to work on a devotional, like Heather's, to bring me back to scripture during the advent season (instead of running around like a crazy shopping person!!).

ReplyDeleteI love listening to King's College's Christmas Eve service online. It is beautiful music and readings.
ReplyDeleteI try to create space to write every day of Advent - writing helps me focus in and explore the tension found in waiting/hoping.
ReplyDeletei definitely want to write in a journal or do an advent devotion this year!
