O Come, O Come, Emmanuel (Hardback) by

A 40-Day Devotional Liturgy for Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany

During Christmas, homes are filled with good food, welcoming family, and lively cheer. Streets are lined with lights and sprinkled with snow. Amid this season of beauty, even Christians can become distracted, keeping Jesus at an unintentional distance. How can Christians effectively prepare their hearts for the arrival of their King and worship him the way he deserves?

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel by Jonathan Gibson presents a 40-day devotional liturgy guiding readers through Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany—helping them keep their eyes fixed on Christ. Designed as a resource for the holiday season, each reading includes a guided meditation, applicable Scripture readings, hymns, prayers, creeds, and prompts for petition and confession. For individuals and families, this devotional will help Christians focus on Jesus and meditate on the mystery of his incarnation.

40 Daily Devotions: Featuring seasonal Scripture readings, hymns, prayers, and creeds, as well as time for meditation, petition, and confession
Created for Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany: Guides readers from November 28 through January 6
Repetition throughout Readings: Scripture, hymns, and creeds repeat to help readers memorize important material.
Written by Jonathan Gibson: Author of Be Thou My Vision: A Liturgy for Daily Worship

Excellent seasonal devotional

I've been using Gibson's previous 'Be thou my vision' devotional as my regular aid to daily worship. This advent version is a wonderful variation on the theme that I anticipate using again and again in years to come. A rich pattern of prayers to press the gospel into your life each day.
