The Advent is a 24-day devotional that walks us through a Biblical calendar of prophecies and events in the lead up to Christmas Day. Use each chapter of The Advent to enter into a time of reflection and spiritual growth in preparation for the most widely recognised day in the Christian calender: the birth of Jesus Christ. Brother Brad Smith brings together Biblical research, historical facts and other stories to present the promises given by God about the coming of Christ the Messiah to the nation of Israel. Follow the 'reason for the season' through the pages of the Old and New Testaments and uncover the prophetic promises that were spoken about Christ. Challenge your spiritual growth in the chapters of The Advent in the 24 days leading up to Christmas Day. Reflect on the daily readings to participate in the reason why Jesus came to earth, as promised to Eve in the garden of Eden, to Abraham, the prophets and to those surrounding His birth. Step into the promises of history and become part of the storyline to experience the love of God in Christ Jesus.
