"Come to the Manger" and "Christmas Conversations" are the titles of the devotions available from Lutheran Hour Ministries for the 2008 Advent season. These devotions are designed to be used for both personal reflection and as an outreach tool for your congregation.

“Come to the Manger” takes the believer through stories and Scripture and guides them to a rich personal time with their King! Written in a style more traditional, and perhaps, more familiar to Christians, these texts illuminate the timeless story of God's gift to the world as given in the birth of His Son. These devotions are available in both English and Spanish.

“Christmas Conversations” is a series of challenging reflections for those considering a personal relationship with the Savior. With wit, insight, and personal observations, these meditations will lead the reader on a journey that navigates the busy holiday season to the essence of Christmas. Through thought-provoking questions and contemporary language, God’s love is revealed in Bethlehem and Jesus' sacrifice as fulfilled on the cross.

Both "Come to the Manger" and "Christmas Conversations" have been created in a PDF format that makes it easy for you to customize them with your church information and to distribute throughout your community. Sharing Advent devotions is a great way to get people from your church involved in a meaningful outreach effort this Christmas. These devotions are available in both English and Spanish.
