Isaiah 28:17

Embark on a seven-day journey to see the grand story of Scripture with fresh eyes. This reading plan, based on The Jesus Bible Study Series, guides you through the Bible's six acts: Beginnings, Revolt, People, Savior, Church, and Forever. Each day you will discover how Jesus is the common thread tying the entire narrative together, from the first page to the last. Through daily Bible readings, a brief devotional, and thoughtful reflections, you will explore your own role in God's story and deepen your connection with the Creator who has a plan and purpose for your life.

This 17-day plan will help you dive into the deep theology of Romans chapters 6-11, which discuss topics like election, predestination, and free will. Such complex topics are broken down into practical, applicable explanations and reflection questions that make theology accessible for everybody, whether you’re just curious about the Bible, a new believer, or a long-time follower of Jesus.

This Advent Guide comes from students, faculty, and staff at Belmont University. Advent is that season of waiting that carefully and purposefully helps us to realign our priorities and to glimpse, anew, our place before God. Our humble hope is this guide helps people focus more fully on Jesus Christ through the Advent season.

As we head into the season of Advent, it’s easy to be swept away with all the plans of Christmas, family times, food, and gifts. It's also full of emotions, pain, and loss for many of us. Advent is a season of waiting. Trusting in a good God who holds our times and seasons. Advent. Wait. Hope.
