I don’t know about you, but it feels like the season of Christmas has suddenly snuck up on me. It’s not too late to start a Christmas Devotional as you ponder the true meaning of the season. It can be a great way to slow down and take it all in.
As I pondered the Christmas story this year and how we’ve done devotions in the past, I wanted to do something that looked at the Christmas story in a new way. How often do we read the words in Luke or Matthew without really thinking about them? Sure, we know the basic story, but have we ever really looked at how God constructed it. So, this year, we read through the Christmas story as told by both Luke and Matthew and wrote down all the ‘characters’ we encountered in our reading. 13 writers came together to write about these characters and their importance in the Christmas story. We hope it will help you shine fresh eyes on Christmas and the beauty of how God wove it together.
Take a look at our character list and read through the Christmas Story as told by Matthew and Luke. Together, let’s walk into Christmas with a greater understanding of the importance of this incredible season.
