An Advent calendar is a wonderful way to not simply count the days until Christmas, but to lead our hearts into worship of and thanksgiving for the gift of Jesus. With that in mind, I put together 25 Scriptures that trace the Messianic expectations of the Old Testament and the arrival of Jesus in the New as a way of leading my heart and the hearts of those in my family closer to Christ this Christmas.
If you think it would be of benefit to you and/or your family, you can download the file below. The document is designed to be cut into slips of paper that can be placed into an advent calendar you might already have, but you could also just check off each day. I hope it’s a blessing – let me know if you use it or have ideas on how to improve it.
Merry Christmas!
