Christmas Mini Blog Journey
A 7-Day Devotional Series from Grace & Truth Gift Shop
Before the shepherds, before the manger, before the star, Scripture gives us a genealogy. Matthew begins the Christmas story by tracing names across generations. It may seem surprising, but this list sets the stage for everything that follows. Christmas didn’t begin in Bethlehem. It began in God’s promise.
This week, we enter the Advent season by looking at the family line of Jesus and remembering that God has always been writing a much bigger story than we can see.
Reflection: Where have you recently seen God weaving threads together in your life, even if the full picture isn’t clear yet?
