Publisher's Synopsis
An Advent wreath with four candles is a rich Christmas tradition. One flame at a time, Christians focus on Hope, Love, Joy and Peace, one week at a time preparing for Christmas Day. Is the focus only in church while the candle burns? We can take that uplifting Hope, the encompassing Love, indescribable Joy and incredible Peace into our everyday lives during the Advent season and experience a much more profound sense of devotion and expectation for the Christ Child. Unwrapping Advent's Gifts offers five days of scripture and reading to deepen our understanding of these Advent themes with two days of reflection each week. Scripture from both the Old and New Testaments throughout each day's reading offers an in depth look at Hope, Love, Joy and Peace from a Biblical perspective. As a personal study or in a small group, these daily meditations shine a light on the gifts God has presented each of us. These gifts He has given often go unwrapped during the busy Christmas season. Unwrap His most precious gifts this Advent.
