Christmas at New Life

Weekly Devotional Guide

For many of us, Christmas calls to mind warm lights in window displays, church bell choirs, tables set with food, and long-awaited family reunions. For others, Christmas’s light is dimmed by chaotic holiday planning, bouts of anxiety, and longing for people now gone. Still, there is endless hope for everyone in the Christmas story. For lost in the flurry of holiday preparations is a truth so profound – so filled with awe, wonder, and unfailing love – that it has altered the lives of faith-filled people for centuries.

Jesus gave humanity a gift much greater than anything we could ever put under a tree. For that, we have reason to praise and celebrate!

So amidst hanging lights, buying gifts, or whenever you are feeling down, we encourage you to intentionally rejoice in the truth at the heart of the holiday season. Consider this four-week devotional your guide. Together, we will reflect on the hope, peace, joy, and love found in the birth of Christ Jesus.

Let Your Light Shine

We challenge you to seek Christ in prayer, express gratitude, and get to know His story through His Word. Invite your family, friends, and loved ones young and old into your festivities. Light is not meant to stay hidden. Our prayer is that as you look to the coming Savior, your hearts will be transformed. May the light sparked in you this Christmas season grow brighter than any shining star, all to God’s glory.
