there’s still time! You’ll even have access to the previous two weeks if you’d like to start from the beginning. You’re not too late (and truly, Jesus just wants time with you — He isn’t worried about whether you need to “catch up” or not).


If you’re looking for some holiday-themed reading, I’d encourage you to check out Suzanne’s article “

Joy Elusive ” and Jackson’s blog post “

3 Tips for Bringing Your Boyfriend or Girlfriend Home for the Holidays. ” We’ll also be answering an Inbox question on this same topic — bringing significant others home for Christmas — on next week’s show. Keep an eye out for it; you won’t want to miss it!


Whether you’re following along with the devotional or diving into some seasonal reading, I hope you’re taking time to remember, reflect on, and soak in the glorious news of our Savior’s birth. We wouldn’t have Christmas without Him — and nothing in this life is worth more than Jesus. ❤️


Preview of Next Week:

On the Show — How to share the gospel at work, guarding your mind with Kyle Idleman, and bringing a significant other to Christmas

On the Site — Grieving during the holidays, a single’s Christmas toolkit, and how to make friends and encourage people

How to Survive #GivingTuesday When You’re Broke
