Hi.

Thanks for stopping by. I love celebrating Advent with friends!

The first Sunday of Advent falls  on December 1st this year– so if you like to wait until December to begin your preparations for Christmas, this is your perfect year! I am always a fan of the longest possible Advent Season (the earliest first Sunday of Advent is November 25) but an all-December Advent sounds lovely for this year. Since Christmas is on Wednesday, the last week of readings may feel a little scrunched, so give yourself some grace. Finish up after Christmas if you want to.  The stories and verses are familiar, but my prayer is that they will stir our hearts in a way that makes them feel new again.

The Audio Book Club link above will take you to the daily readings and some comments that were recorded a few years ago for church book club during Advent.

If you need a copy of the book, you can buy one at my Etsy Store (AncientNewStory) or on Amazon. Or if you live in the Phoenix, AZ area contact me at deana@ancientnewstory.com and I will deliver to you.

Advent Blessings!

Deana
