Four ways to meet Christ each day

Every day of Advent has something for everyone at your table, all built around one short passage of Scripture (ESV).

📖

Personal reading

The day's passage, a short reflection and a question to carry with you, plus optional commentary from John Calvin or Matthew Henry.

🍽️

Family reading

A simpler retelling to read aloud around the dinner table, written for kids and grown-ups together.

💬

Family questions

Three conversation starters each night, plus a private discussion space where your family can share notes and questions.

⭐

For little ones

A short story, a picture, a line to say together and one simple question for children ages 3–7.
