Yes, we are only two days into December. You can easily do a special December or Christmas Bible study if you start today.
One of the easiest ways to do this is to participate in Abby's 25 Days of God-Given Gifts at Little Birdie Blessings.
Abby has beautiful free graphics -- like the one above -- for each day, as well as verses and
illustrations for each God-given gift. These readings are not lengthy
but they are most meaningful, so you might wish to go over and look at this
series each day, maybe writing out the verses and even journaling them using the SOAP method of meditating on Scripture. Abby also provides links to follow the series on
Facebook, Pinterest, or Instagram.
Another relatively easy way to do an Advent study is by doing a
Scripture writing challenge. You can find a number of Scripture
writing and journaling plans at Rachel Wojo, among other places. One from Rachel Wojo that I have done in the past is the plan titled The Light. I found it a blessing!
The Road to Christmas, from Love God Greatly is an Advent study I've done in the past and highly recommend. God With Us
is another Advent study I've done from Love God Greatly. It seems as if the journal and reading plan
may be downloaded for free on their site, but if you want to purchase
the book it may be found on Amazon.
Another Advent study I have done which I greatly enjoyed was this free download from Good Morning Girls: Keeping Our Hearts Focused on Jesus.
Even though you might be a day or two late in starting these Bible
studies, I definitely suggest starting one if you can make the time.
You will gain so much
from an Advent study. It is never too late to begin a good Bible study
that may impact your life for eternity!
For one final bit of inspiration, you might visit my Christmas devotionals
Pinterest board. Lots of good reads there, and also a Christmas-themed
Scripture writing plan that, again, it wouldn't be too late to start.
This year I am doing Peace, Be Still from Women Living Well/Good Morning Girls. It's more of a prayer journal format than a Bible study, and it would be easy for you to catch up with that one. I'm turning it into a mini Bible study by meditating on the Scriptures used, however.
I hope you'll decide to try out a Christmas themed Bible study on your own this season. It really helps us keep our focus where it belongs -- on Jesus.
I have the YouVersion Bible app on my phone and am doing enjoy their Christmas devotionals.
ReplyDeleteOh, that is wonderful! I have heard good things about that app.
