Love is at the very heart of Christmas. Advent leads us toward the moment when God showed His love in the most personal way—by sending Jesus to be with us. This week, we remember that God’s love is not just a feeling; it’s something we can see, hear, share, and give. Through the songs and Scriptures ahead, we’ll discover how God’s love changes us and how we can bring that love to others.
As you move through the final days before Christmas, may your family slow down and notice the ways love is showing up all around you—in kindness, in generosity, in laughter, in quiet moments, and in the story of Jesus’ birth. Let this week fill your home with the kind of love that reflects God’s heart.
