The REAL Advent—7 Extraordinary Preparations God Made for Jesus’ Birth

There are many positive things about traditional Advent, with candles, hot chocolate, and devotional readings that focus our hearts on the true meaning of Christmas. As beneficial as these aspects of Advent are, Advent became even more meaningful to me when until I did some in-depth historical study about all the extraordinary things God did to prepare the world for His Son, Jesus.

The results of that study are incredibly exciting and not only in preparation for Christmas, but I trust that listening or looking at this content will also give you trust and assurance in how God works through history.

This content goes over the 7 Extraordinary Preparations God made in real history that when you look at them all together are an amazing testimony to the power of God and the reality of the divine origin of Jesus.

This topic is so important that in addition to the podcast, I also created two videos, one of the context of the podcast and one that shows the maps discussed more clearly, notes of the content in two formats you can use for personal study or a class and a printout of the maps discussed. All these materials are free for you to use devotionally or to share with a class, your church, or small group. At the start of the list is a link to the free printable of All Will Be Well, which I promised as my little gift to you in the video and podcast.
