These straightforward, short and profound Advent readings have been edited from talks given by much-loved Bible teacher, R.C. Sproul, helping readers to benefit from his enduring insight and wisdom. They delve into the details of the Christmas story and reflect on how these impact our lives now, combining scholarly detail with heartwarming application.
Each day also includes a prayer written by a well-known Bible teacher of our own day, to guide your own reflections.
As R.C. Sproul observes, the narrative of the birth of Jesus is so familiar to many of us that ”the words just slip over us So, take the time to slow down and dwell on the ...words of the Christmas story so that you arrive at Christmas Day full of awe and wonder at the birth of Jesus.
I love that RC’s wisdom is still being compiled in books even after his death. This book is a compilation of text from 2 series of talks given by Dr. Sproul in his lifetime (The Messiah is Born and The Coming of the Messiah) with each chapter taking a keyword or character from the Christmas story and using it to mediate on the advent of Christ.
If you’ve read any of RC Sproul’s other books and have listened to one ...of his many sermons or series, then this book will feel like a familiar friend. It incorporates his usual wisdom and clarity as he explains detailed complexities of Christian doctrine in a very accessible way. It’s theologically rich, encouraging, and directs your focus on Christ.
This is a small, but mighty book as it progresses slowly through the details and characters of the Christmas story. Each chapter includes Scripture at the beginning and ends with a prayer written by other great theologians such as Sinclair Ferguson, Tim Challies, Steven Lawson, and Joni Eareckson Tada. This devotional will be a permeant place in our home library and will be brought out year after year. It’s shallow enough to read with children and yet deep enough for mature Christians to wade through. It’s exactly what you’d come to love and expect from the great, late RC Sproul.
The Advent of Glory by R.C. Sproul is 24 day devotional using key Christmas words to meditate on the Advent (Arrival) of Christ. After every chapter is a prayer to reflect on the reading.
This book was edited by Sproul’s wife and uses mostly material from 2 of his talks “The Messiah is Born” and “The Coming of the Messiah”
• MY THOUGHTS - the book is good! I enjoyed it, it has natural easy reading flow which I appreciate.
...Sproul references scripture and uses great similes & metaphors in descriptions, which shines when it comes to breaking down some of the original Greek text.
Also the chapters are brief so you can more efficiently manage to get the reading in throughout almost any part of your day.
Rich in theological truth and application, this is an inspiring devotional that both engages and prepares your heart for the season of Advent.
I personally enjoyed the prayers at the end of each devotional and the insightfulness of several devotions including those on: Mary (“Mother”), being set apart (“Holy”), and Simeon (“Face-to-Face”).
Additionally, I love that this devotional is not only a wonderful resource for the Advent season, but one that can be referenced throughout the year for chronological or topical studies.
Thank you, The Good Book Company, for my copy in exchange for honest review.
