Our family began a new Advent tradition as we were anxiously awaiting the arrival of our son, Theo; who was supposed to be a Christmas baby, but decided that he did not care for the year 2022 and waited until 2023 to meet us instead!
An acquaintance from our former church in Texas wrote a beautiful Advent book called “God is Coming.” We read it every night with our kids before bed, starting on Dec. 1st up until Christmas Day.

The story takes our family through a journey beginning with God’s creation of the world and mankind all the way through the Bible to the birth of Jesus. It is both simple, with rhymes and repetition for children to enjoy, and beautiful, as it recounts how the Lord pursues His children.
Our kids look forward to reading it every night and taking a peek at the next page to see what comes next! It has become a simple tradition that we all love!
