Honest Advent — Wednesday Night Book Study

This Advent, you’re invited into a fresh and deeply meaningful journey through the season with Honest Advent by artist and storyteller Scott Erickson.

In a world where the holidays can feel rushed, commercialized, or emotionally heavy, Honest Advent offers something different—25 devotional readings and striking illustrations that bring the Christmas story back to its raw, sacred, utterly human center.

Rather than treating the nativity as something distant and polished, this study helps us encounter Christ-with-us in the unexpected places of our lives:
• in seasons of uncertainty
• in moments of hope and new beginnings
• in our honest questions
• in the places we feel weary or stretched thin

Each week, we’ll reflect on themes such as:
Finding light in dark winters
Embracing the unexpected
How vulnerability opens us to God
The surprising, ordinary places where the Incarnation still breaks in today

Erickson’s meditations, prayers, and illustrations help us rediscover the wonder of God-with-Us right here, in our stories and struggles.

Whether Advent feels joyful or heavy for you this year, you are welcome.
Come connect, breathe, reflect, and walk through this season in community.
