The Real Advent, 7 extraordinary ways God prepared the world for Christmas

About this Lesson

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 this lesson, I created another that shows the maps discussed more clearly.

When you see how carefully God planned and worked out the details of the birth of His Son, I hope it encourages you that the same God who never changes is in control in our world, no matter the chaos we see around us.
