God with Us - Teen Devotional: The Story of the Messiah Volume 2 (Lifeway Students Devotions)

Description

Christ is Born

We all know the basics surrounding the birth of Jesus. Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus, a star, shepherds, wise men, Herod, all of it. But did you know that all of Scripture points to God's goodness by sending His one and only Son to dwell among us? In this 30-day devotional we will explore all elements of the birth of Jesus, from the amazing prophecies of the Old Testament, to all of the people of the Gospels directly involved in and around it. Most importantly, we'll see how God has provided, protected, and promised salvation, not only to Israel, but to the whole world. You too can firmly place your hope in the God of the Universe who loves you. God so loved the World, that He gave us Jesus: God with us.

In this 12-volume series, each 30-day devotional will point to the unchanging truth of God's love and anchor students in His Word as they walk through the holidays, seasons of change, and milestones that come with each passing year. Students will learn to Discover God's Word, Delight in the Lord, and Display God's work in their lives.

Discover (Identity + Theology): Who is God? Who am I in light of who God is? These are two of the most important questions students can grapple with because in discovering who God is, they learn who He has meant for them to be. Studies within the Discover category will help students align their lives under God's rule which will give them confidence in who they were created to be.

Delight (Spiritual Disciplines): What does it mean to delight in God? What leads to delight in God? Helping students see God in every detail teaches them to delight in Him. When students find their delight in God, they will learn what it means and how to be in relationship with Him.

Display (Leadership, Mission, + Disciple Making): How do students display the glory of God? How do they help others grow in their relationship with Him? How can they lead others to display the truth of God? Through students learning to lead, live on mission, and make disciples, God's glory is on display and His kingdom is expanded.

Each book includes 30 daily devotions, applicable Scripture, prayer prompts, and practical application.
