about the study

Chapter topics include: The Royal Titles: Lord and Messiah The Deliverer’s Title: Savior The Incarnate Title: Emmanuel The Light of the World Epilogue: The Word Made Flesh

A transformative Christmas experience for your whole church NEW Incarnation

Rediscovering the Significance of Christmas Adam Hamilton Jesus was called many things: Lord, Messiah, Savior, Emmanuel, Light of the World, and Word Made Flesh. You may have studied what each of these names mean, but what do they tell us about the child whose birth we celebrate? How might the meaning behind these names affect the difference he makes in our lives this Christmas?

FOR CHILDREN

author insights

God so loved the outcast, the marginalized, that he sent his only son on that first Christmas to conduct an all-out search. As Jesus shined his light into the darkness of our world, the truth of our human condition was revealed. All of us are outcasts really, for every single one of us has fallen from God’s grace.

This Christmas, make room in your heart for God and neighbor NEW Making Room

Sharing the Love of Christmas Ed Robb One of the things we love most about Christmas is gathering with dear family members and close friends to celebrate Christ’s birth. That’s an important part of the season, but Dr. Ed Robb, author of Making Room, says if we look at the Advent story we’ll quickly learn that the focus of the coming of the newborn king is outward.

This four-week study explores the warmth of welcome at Christmas following interactions with the Holy Family, the shepherds, and the magi. The story of Christ’s birth encourages us to widen our borders and increase our sense of community—and make room for others. Additional components for the study include a comprehensive Leader Guide.

praise for the book

No matter how hard even devoted Christians try to make Christmas enough, we harbor this gnawing sense that something’s missing. Deftly playing off Wesley’s assessment that so many of us are “almost Christian,” deVega, Casperson, Rawle, and McIntyre join their voices in showing us ways to move from “almost Christmas” to “altogether Peace, Hope, Love and Joy,” which really would be enough. Highly recommended!

—James Howell, Pastor of Myers Park United Methodist Church in Charlotte, North Carolina

DEVOTIONS

Follow Christ wholeheartedly this Advent season Almost Christmas

A Wesleyan Advent Experience Magrey R. DeVega, Ingrid McIntyre, April Casperson, and Matt Rawle In John Wesley’s famous sermon, “The Almost Christian,” he encouraged people to follow Christ wholeheartedly. In Almost Christmas: A Wesleyan Advent Experience, author and pastor Magrey deVega leads a group of authors in exploring how we can make the same commitment to Christ during Advent, and connect our Wesleyan heritage with the traditional Advent themes of Love, Hope, Joy, and Peace.

Additional components for a four-week study include a comprehensive Leader Guide, a DVD, a Youth Study Book, and a daily devotional. Nativity hymns by Charles Wesley, litanies for lighting the Advent wreath, and prayers that can be incorporated into both worship and small-group settings are available for download at a URL provided in the book.

author insights

I love Christmas. I like the candles. I like the trees. I even like the shopping.

But I particularly love Christmas because I love the stories...the accounts...the different accounts we get in the Gospel of Matthew and we get in the Gospel of Luke and we get also from post-biblical church legends.

If I, as an outsider to the Christian tradition, can find such marvel, such wonder, and such joy in these chapters in Matthew and Luke, how much more so should people who are members of the church or followers of Jesus be able to smile, indeed laugh, when they read these stories?

Rediscover the wonder and joy of the Nativity story Light of the World

A Beginner’s Guide to Advent Amy-Jill Levine Advent is not only the perfect time to read the story of the birth of Jesus; it’s also a great time to delve into the biblical texts that surround the event.

In Light of the World: A Beginner’s Guide to Advent, author, professor, and biblical scholar Amy-Jill Levine shows how the Gospel narratives connect to the Old Testament; highlights the role of women in first-century Jewish culture; and emphasizes the importance of Mary’s visitation, the census, the stable, the star of Bethlehem, and the flight to Egypt. A rich and challenging learning experience for the individual reader, the book also makes a wonderful, four-week Advent group study with the additional Leader Guide and DVD. Abingdon Press.

Go from “Bah, Humbug!” to a Blessed Advent and Merry Christmas The Redemption of Scrooge Matt Rawle

FOR YOUTH

Ebenezer Scrooge is a man in dire need of a second chance. Is redemption possible for such a greedy, dark, and sad character?

The Redemption of Scrooge, a book and four-week study from Matt Rawle’s The Pop in Culture Series, shows us how the teachings of Jesus can be found in Dickens’ Christmas classic. From the ghosts of Christmas past, to the Life of the present, and the resurrection of Christmas future, this Advent study will “bless us every one” and reinvigorate our spiritual journeys as we look at this familiar story through the lens of faith.

Studies Amazing lessons about courage, faith, obedience, and risk-taking for God Faithful

Christmas Through the Eyes of Joseph Adam Hamilton We’re not that different from Joseph. True, we may not be part of a story that will be remembered for all time, but like Joseph, we encounter circumstances that we’d never choose for ourselves. Joseph provides us a great example of humbly obeying God even when we don’t understand, faithfully moving forward in the strength that God provides.

Join Adam Hamilton as he examines Christmas through the eyes of Joseph and learn to accept and glorify God’s will even when our situation makes it difficult to do so.

Additional components are available to use to create an all-church Advent study.

How might a house look for Christmas based on what each Gospel says about it?

In each section, Cynthia M. Campbell reflects on the distinctive perspective of the birth of Jesus or the incarnation offered by each Gospel.

Suitable for individual or group study, Christmas in the Four Gospel Homes creatively reimagines the season and inspires new and exciting reflection for Advent.

Studies Can you use some true Christmas this Christmas?

Because of Bethlehem

Love Is Born, Hope Is Here Max Lucado Each year, the Christmas season compels people to ask the Christmas questions. What’s the big deal about the baby in the manger? Who was he? What does his birth have to do with me? Of all the responses to these questions, there is one that stands out from the rest: Because of Bethlehem, God knows what it is like to be human. When we talk to God about our challenges, our struggles, and our tough times, he understands, because he’s been there. He’s been here. The four sessions in this videobased Advent study remind us of these truths and give us hope.

NEW Making Room: Sharing the Love of Christmas

Almost Christmas: A Wesleyan Advent Experience

Light of the World: A Beginner’s Guide to Advent

Ed Robb

Magrey R. DeVega, Ingrid McIntyre, April Casperson, Matt Rawle Churchwide/Small Group/Adult Individual In 1741, Wesley’s famous sermon “The Almost Christian” encouraged people to follow Christ wholeheartedly. This book and study, perfect for Advent, breaks down the barriers that prevent us from experiencing an “altogether” love, hope, joy, and peace in Christ in our lives and in the world around us.

Devotionals Experience the mystery and wonder of Christ’s birth in this awe-inspiring, joy-filled pilgrimage to Bethlehem NEW Let Us Go Now to Bethlehem

Daily Devotions for Advent and Christmas Todd Outcalt This charming devotional book takes readers on an inward journey to the miracle of Christ’s birth in the little town of Bethlehem. Many who will read this book probably haven’t actually traveled to Bethlehem. “But that is of little consequence to the adventure of arriving there, to the adventure of discovery that awaits the mystery and wonder in the birth of Jesus,” Todd Outcalt writes.

The devotions are both personal and challenging. “I hope readers can discover something new that they may have overlooked in the old, old story,” says Outcalt. It’s important to stay alert on the pilgrimage to Bethlehem, Outcalt reminds readers, for they may encounter Jesus in unexpected moments and surprising people or when they are most tired or confused.

Includes devotions for the 28 days of Advent, the 12 days of Christmas, and the day of Epiphany. For small-group leaders, the book includes a 6-week study guide with weekly questions for reflection and conversation, a suggested Scripture passage for each week, and an invitation to ponder the happenings of that week.

Seek and find God’s presence in every moment of the season Expectant

Advent Meditations Anne E. Kitch We don’t like to wait, but the season of Advent is all about waiting—a time of expectation, when Christians have traditionally devoted themselves to practices of prayer and study.

This book offers a short meditation for each of the thirty days of the season, from the First Sunday of Advent through Christmas Day. In the spirit of expectancy, each meditation focuses on seeking and seeing God in the everyday of our ordinary lives, based on a psalm that corresponds to the daily office for the season of Advent.

Expectant is the perfect seasonal practice companion for spiritual seekers as well as devoted Christians, and ideal for church groups and congregations wishing to hand out a fresh and contemporary Advent resource to members and guests.

Devotionals Piece together the remarkable beginnings of the Christian story NEW Preparing Room

An Advent Companion Russell J. Levenson Jr. Explore the biblical context for Advent with the series of contemplations in this Advent companion. The pieces of the beginning of the Christian story come together, not from one set of hands, but many. For instance, in the four Gospels, Mark makes no mention of the events leading up to and surrounding the birth of Jesus. John, for the most part, points back to Genesis. Most of the historical pieces come to us primarily from Matthew and Luke. When we consider the Scriptures together, we find the key to telling the story of the season.

Allusions and references to other Scriptures are accompanied by brief meditations that will help us delve more deeply into the Advent story and find its meaning and impact for our own lives.
