At the center of the Christmas story is the birth of Jesus, the hope of the world. Over two thousand years ago, in a little humble town under a sky illuminated by a guiding star, the long-awaited Messiah, the Son of God and the Savior of the world, finally arrived. Praised by angel choirs and witnessed by lowly shepherds, this newborn babe lying in a manger was the fulfillment of ancient prophecies. But Jesus’ arrival was so much more than just a historical event. The birth of Jesus, the Christ, changed everything. Hope was born. A hope echoing through all eternity. A hope that rings in our hearts still today. A hope that’s the song of our soul. 

A Song of Hope [DOWNLOADABLE VERSION] is a 10-day Christmas and Advent devotional that explores hope’s long-awaited arrival by journeying daily through the narrative of Scripture and reflecting on the events leading up to and following Jesus’ birth. Along the way, students will be met with opportunities to rediscover the lyrics of many well-known Christmas hymns—songs that have been sung for generations and are deeply rooted in the truths of the Bible. These familiar lyrics will take on new meaning as they learn how these hymns proclaim the miraculous gift of hope that can only be found in Jesus. Help your students experience this Christmas season with A Song of Hope in their hearts, remembering and reflecting on the greatest gift ever given—the gift of hope found in the birth of a Savior.
