Free CHRISTmas Daily Devotional Publication

Postby Brett Jones » Thu Nov 30, 2006 9:35 am

Everyone,

I wanted to alert you to a free set of daily devotionals covering the month of December. The devotionals focus on Christ, from the pre-existent Christ through Age 12. The devotionals were written by two the two small congregations of Anchor Missionary Baptist Mission (Anchorage, Alaska, USA) and Harvest Missionary Baptist Church (Avon, Indiana, USA).

Focusing on Christ should always be a priority, but there's increased opportunity this time of the year to 'love the world' rather than remembering our first love. Take time, refocus. Thanks.
