Advent season devotional
The Promised One
In this 4-week devotional guide, we explore what Scripture tells us about the Promised One.
The daily reflections delve into key passages that help us understand more about who Jesus is. And each weekly theme centers around a core aspect of Jesus’ identity drawn from Isaiah’s prophecies.
This is how we have peace in a genuinely troubled world: God, from beyond our world, has given us himself as our peace.

Advent reminds us of the glorious rest given through Jesus' first coming and anticipates the full restoration that will accompany his return.

This Advent season, we celebrate the Promised One who delivered us from darkness, who called us into his wonderful light so that we might bask in the Son and declare his praises.

For to us a child is born...
(Isaiah 9:6)
As we delve into these truths of Jesus' identity and purpose, may our worship be enriched and we come kneeling before the one who will one day come again in glory:
Week 1 | Jesus is the Mighty God
We anticipate his promised return and his ultimate reign.
Week 2 | Jesus is the Prince of Peace
He brings us spiritual peace in the here and now as we experience redemption and live by the values of his kingdom.
Week 3 | Jesus is the Light of the World
Jesus is not only the light for us as individuals–he is a light for all nations.
Week 4 | Jesus is Immanuel
As Isaiah's prophecy foretold, he is "God with us."
Study as a Family or Group
Each daily reading concludes with Scripture passages for reflection and discussion questions to aid individual or group study. The guide at the back of the devotional offers additional ideas and activities for families and groups throughout advent.
