Ground Up Faith

From what perspective do you hear stories? Does it make a difference at all? We'll wrestle with these questions and hear this story from a perspective you've probably not taken before in today's devotional.

This new series, introduced today, will build on the popularity of the Advent Devotionals. Each week you'll hear two devotionals; one an early response to the text and the second and more seriously considered devotional. This week you'll receive them on Wednesday and Friday but more normally you'll get them on Tuesday and Thursday.

May this be a blessing to you in your devotional preparations for Sunday! 

We conclude our Advent Devotional with the 24th and Final Chapter of Luke's Gospel. We hear the story of Jesus' Resurrection and consider what it might mean for our Christmas Celebrations today; and beyond!
