All Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, points to Christ. Don’t miss that reality during the Christmas season. The Advent (coming) of Jesus is just as important as His crucifixion and death. Our prayer is that our Lord fills you with a fresh and glorious picture of Himself this month.

Here are 25 Bible passages to guide you through the month of December, on a path to our annual celebration of His birth. You can also download this complete list as a PDF. Read them daily, or read them during the final week leading up to Christmas. The choice is yours, but we urge you — spend time in God’s Word this Christmas!
