Advent Book Study: The First Advent in Palestine
Read with us—or simply join the online conversation each week—as we explore the themes of our Advent worship series through the lens of The First Advent in Palestine by Kelley Nikondeha.
In this short but powerful book, Nikondeha invites us to journey through Advent with fresh eyes. As we carefully unwrap our nativity sets each year, she helps us see each figure—the shepherds, Mary, Joseph, and others—not just as part of a familiar scene, but as people living under real struggle, resistance, and hope.
Through her reflections, we are reminded that God entered the world in the midst of hardship and injustice, bringing light and love to a weary world.
The book is available on Amazon, but purchasing a copy is not required to participate in the discussion. Join us as we read, reflect, and prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ.
