Emmanuel: God With Us, an Advent Devotional

More than a name, Emmanuel is a declaration of heaven meeting Earth: God with us in despair, struggle, and brokenness. At Christmas, God came to redeem people in need of a Savior and light the darkness with His love. As we remember and celebrate His coming, HOPE International—a global nonprofit accelerating the end of poverty—explores how Jesus’ followers can bring His holy, healing presence into a broken world.

To a broken world, God sent a baby: His Son. In the weeks preceding Christmas, we invite you to reflect on God’s answer to our broken world—His presence—and our call to be His hands and feet in places of brokenness. Beginning with Old Testament revelations and proceeding through the life of Jesus, each devotion explores one expression of God’s nearness and its application for us as His followers. Thank you for joining us!

We would like to thank Hope International for providing this plan. For more information, please visit: http://www.hopeinternational.org/youversion.
