Manger to Mercy: Portraits of Grace

About

Slow down. Fix your eyes on Jesus—the Baby in the manger, the Savior on the cross, the King on the throne.

From the cradle to the cross, every step of Christ’s life pointed to mercy. Advent—derived from the Latin word
adventus meaning “arrival”—calls us to slow down and prepare our hearts to encounter Jesus.

In
Manger to Mercy: Portraits of Grace, you’ll walk alongside men and women who saw the Messiah face-to-face. Their stories invite you to lay aside distractions, doubts, and burdens and to discover the joy of fixing your eyes on Jesus—the author and perfecter of your faith.

Each short devotion offers:

  • Scripture to anchor your heart in truth
  • Stories of those who encountered Christ
  • Reflections to deepen your faith
  • Prayers to draw you near to Him
  • Songs to guide your heart in worship
  • Space to capture your reflections and prayers
Whether read in the Advent season or any time of year, these reflections will help you trade hurry for hope, worry for worship, and weariness for wonder. Come and behold the One who left the splendor of heaven, entered the world He created in a humble manger, and, in love and mercy, gave Himself for you on a rugged cross.
