Advent Devotional 2026

“After seeing him, the shepherds told everyone what had happened and what the angel had said to them about this child. All who heard the shepherds’ story were astonished”

LUKE 2:17-20

Christmas season is for some: the best season of the year. A time of excitement, a time to gather with friends and family, a countdown to opening gifts on Christmas Day. Christmas is a beautiful time to spend with loved ones, but more importantly it is a time to celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus.

This year our church assembled an advent devotional written by our pastoral staff, office staff, board members, ministry leaders, and retired ministers.

This Christmas season, let us read together about the plan that God has to redeem us from the very beginning. We pray that this devotional not only helps you remember what Christ has done, but also fills you with confidence in the hope that we hold for the future!

Merry Christmas!

First Assembly Pastoral Staff
