The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.Advent is the beginning of the Christian year - a time for hopeful anticipation. A search for hope, love, joy, and peace. Through this 5-week devotional for families, small groups, and faith communities, experience the light of Christ as it breaks into the darkness of a lost world. With fellow brothers and sisters, engage in scripture, storytelling, prayer and interactive group activities, as you journey through this Advent experience.
