Hope of All the Earth: An Advent Devotional

Rate this book
Advent can be a difficult time of year, especially for those in the deepest and darkest throes of waiting for things to get better. Yet we know that the message of Advent is ultimately hope for the hopeless, peace in the chaos, joy for the joyless, and love for the unloved. The darkness has not overcome the light of Christ, so we rejoice even as we wait for all to be restored and made new. Advent reminds us that Jesus is the true Hope of All the Earth.

Journey with your faith community through this devotional book for all ages that offers discussion questions following each reflection as well as a space to journal a prayer each day.

So Inspirational

I have done many Advent readings. A lot of times the days reading is too long. This one was perfect! It is filled with so many insightful thoughts to pray and ponder. Very well done!

This was the 2025 Advent devotional our church chose. It was alright, but it felt like anyother devotional book. It didn't really make me feel excited to think of the love, joy, peace, and hope of the Christmas season. But, it may have just been my mood this Christmas
