The season of Advent starts this Sunday, November 27th. For those unfamiliar, Advent is a season that begins four Sundays prior to Christmas, with each week focusing on the themes of hope, peace, joy, and love. It’s a time to prepare for the celebration to come and to invite reflection on how and why we need that new birth to happen.
Many devotional guides exist to guide people through this time. And now I, too, have written one.
Four Weeks: Reflections for Advent is a series of brief seasonal reflections that focus on our needs leading up to Christmas. They follow those four themes of hope, peace, joy, and love.
Four Weeks released on November 1st, and I’ve shared a lot of launch-related content to help give a better idea of what it’s about. Here it all is in one convenient location.

If you are one who observes this season, I hope that it is a meaningful and Spirit-filled time for you. And I hope that in some small way my book can help it be so.
