Preparing Our Hearts for Christmas Begins November 15
Each Christmas I find myself caught between the wonder of the season and the weight of my to-do list — decorating, teaching, baking, wrapping. Somewhere in the middle of all that joy, my heart starts whispering: slow down… make room for Jesus.
That whisper inspired me to create Preparing for the Messiah — a 40-day Scripture journal designed to help us focus on Christ’s coming with intentional quiet time, reflection, and prayer.
Beginning Friday, November 15, I’ll be walking through the journal right along with you — forty days of verses, reflections, and prayers that lead us to the manger with peaceful hearts.
✨ Each day includes:
• A Scripture passage to read and reflect on, focusing on the coming of Jesus
• Space for your thoughts, gratitude, and prayers
• A daily space to reflect on your Bible Study so you can grow in the Word

And as a small gift, you can download 10 free Advent verse cards to keep nearby this season:
Whether you journal at dawn with coffee or at night by the glow of your tree, I pray these 40 days prepare your heart to receive the peace only the Messiah brings.
Let’s begin this journey together — slowly, intentionally, expectantly.
With grace and anticipation,
Constance Hadley 🌿
