A Midweek devotion for the Second Week of Advent.  Todays Hymns: What Child is This and The Twelve Days of Christmas.  What is the history behind these hymns.  Also, our reading from the last prophet of the Old Testament, Malachi, chapter 2, where the Lord pronounces judgment against Israel and Judah who have forgotten their first love (God) and broken the covenant made with Israel.  Our devotional reading comes from Dietrich Bonhoeffer on 1 Corinthians 2:8-10.
