Advent Meditations (Liturgical Year C): Isaiah, the Prophet

Updated for Advent 2018. Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and shall bring forth a son, and call his name Immanuel. (Isaiah 7:14) Love comes down at Christmas, and it is a love that all generations need, especially today. That Love is a King, a servant, a teacher, a crucified lamb who takes away the sin of the world. When love comes down, He takes a lowly place in a manager, and He strengthens the world with gentleness, quiet reason, and capable discourse. He is from the Father in heaven, and He keeps a promise made. Mark Fredericksen offers his latest meditation book for the current Advent season with Advent Meditations (Liturgical Year C): Isaiah, The Prophet. With bible verses based on a combination of Christian lectionaries, this devotional is intended for all readers of faith who wish to deepen their spiritual relationship with God. Advent is a journey of hope, an adventure of sorts, and the devotions in this book are rooted in the book of Isaiah. With daily Bible verses, contemplative musings, journal questions, and simple prayers, these meditations will help you reflect and dwell in that peaceful hope. For use in group studies or for individualized reflection.
