Adventt is a season of “Looking Forward.” We look forward to Christmas. We look forward eagerly to the return of Jesus Christ on the last day to His triumphal entry and the Peaceable Kingdom.
I have written a book called Advent Adventure, with scriptures, hymns, and symbols to help families prepare for Christmas and understand both the Old Testament prophecy and the traditional church symbols of our faith. The Old Testament ornaments, with patterns you can reproduce, are called Jesse Tree symbols. The New Testament ones are called Chrismons, or Crismons, representing New Testament stories and symbols from the traditional church dating back to Jesus’ time on earth. Both are part of the book I researched. Also included are the Sunday observances of lighting of the Advent wreath candles. I urge you to order copies of this book, in ebook and paperback by going to my website, www.bettyjackson.net or going to Amazon under my full name, Betty Whitaker Jackson. May you be blessed as I was to research and use these devotional tools to make this year’s advent so very special. God bless.
