Here is a series of four lessons that can be used
as an Advent Study for small
groups, adult education classes, or personal study. They are
designed to help you focus on the real meaning of Christmas --
the incarnation of God himself in Jesus Christ -- and what we can
learn about discipleship from the principal characters in this
drama. For Christmas 2007, this series will be available as an
interactive online study and also as an interactive DVD that can
be used to stimulate small group discussion and learning. If your
group can't fit in all four lessons, consider using the first
three.
