Over the last few weeks we have had thousands of individuals join with us to walk through Born The King this Advent season.

We are excited to journey with you during this time of hope and anticipation. Born the King includes daily scripture passages, along with daily devotions. We are providing the daily scripture passages here on the blog so that everyone can follow along with the Advent readings. If you would also like to read the daily reflections, questions, and weekly prayers you can use Born the King: An Advent Devotional. We also have a storybook for children, so kids can read along and share in the anticipation of the Advent season.

Advent begins on Sunday, December 1 and our reading plan goes until Christmas day. Whether your faith community is participating in this year’s advent experience or you would like to follow along as a personal devotional, you can join in the conversation and follow us on Instagram Twitter, or Facebook. And make sure to follow The Church of the Nazarene on Facebook and Instagram as they journey with us through Advent.

We can’t wait to spend this season with all of you!
