Here is the story of Jesus' birth and the fulfilment of Old Testament prophecies in a beautiful way that can be used as a Bible study to use during Advent.
Using traditional wording from Matthew and Luke's Gospels, and beautiful full-color art, it starts with the angelic announcement of John the Baptist's birth and the angel Gabriel's visit to Mary. It continues with mary and Joseph traveling to Nazareth, the birth of Jesus, and the visitation of the shepherds and the Wise Men. It ends with the Gospel story and a forward look toward Christ's second coming.
Contains suggestions for Advent celebrations and traditional suggested readings; also includes suggestions for using the pamphlet as a Christmas script.
