Alabaster has done it again with another simply gorgeous devotional book. I cannot wait to dive into all the content as we get closer and closer to Christmas. The imagery is stunning and the devotional content is so intentional. Thank you, Alabaster for the gift of intentionality and pursuit of Jesus this Christmas season! This book was complimentary via Alabaster's Ambassador Program.

If you're in search of a devotional that seamlessly fits into your on-the-go lifestyle, look no further than this gem. This compact devotional book is not just a spiritual guide; it's a travel companion and a thoughtful addition to your reflective practices. I'll admit, I was at first surprised by the physical size of the book, but I find it perfect for portability. Toss it into your bag effortlessly or slip it into your backpack without adding unnecessary weight. It's also just the right size to accompany a journal, making it a versatile tool for those who love to document their spiritual journey. This devotional has a four-week structure, with each week exploring a distinct theme through three well-crafted parts. The thoughtful inclusion of reflective questions encourages a deeper engagement with the material, making it more than just a passive reading experience. This interactive element, combined with the option to journal, transforms the devotional into a personal dialogue with the themes presented. If you really want to explore further, the devotional generously offers further readings related to each theme. This feature allows readers to delve into the subject matter at their own pace, catering to both those seeking a quick spiritual boost and those desiring a more extensive study. True to Alabaster's brand, the devotional is not only intellectually engaging but also visually stunning. Throughout its pages, the reader is treated to exquisite images of nature, particularly capturing the serene beauty of winter. The inclusion of snow, trees, and mountains not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also complements the devotional's themes, creating a harmonious and immersive experience. Whether you're a seasoned spiritual explorer or just beginning your journey, this devotional offers a unique and enriching experience that transcends the confines of its compact size. Highly recommended! **My copy of The Advent Devotional was complimentary through Alabaster’s Ambassador Program.

Another beautiful design from Alabaster! This advent devotional is a fantastic book for someone who may not read a traditional devotional. It is such a lovely modern design, it will inspire some people to pick it up and learn more about Jesus. It is a smaller book so won’t be overwhelming to a busy family or individual. A great way to start the Christmas season!

My husband and I were looking for an Advent Devotional to use for our first Christmas together. We’ve been working through the Good and Beautiful Bible Study since summer and love it - so obviously an Alabaster Advent devotional was the right choice for us. The way imagery and scripture are partnered together truly enhance our experience. Excited to continue to use Alabaster products and will recommend this to everyone.

As someone who has grown up in a family of musicians, music holds a very special place in my heart. Every Christmas, our family tradition involves gathering around the piano and singing carols and hymns, creating a unique and cherished atmosphere of joy and reflection. So when I got my hands on "The Advent Devotional" by Alabaster Co, I was beyond excited to embark on a spiritual journey that combines my passion for music with the celebration of our Savior! I highly recommend all products from Alabaster Co. This devotional makes a perfect gift for yourself or any of your family and friends!

Where can you hear true awe and joy during the holidays? The Advent Devotional by Alabaster will help you listen to the wonder of the Christmas season. Songs of the Season What I loved most about this devotional was the structure of songs. Each week focused on a different song for the season: (1) The Song of Mary, (2) The Song of Zechariah, (3) The Song of the Angels, and (4) The Song of Simeon. It is a unique yet effective way to experience the season. The devotionals are insightful and the reflection questions are excellent. The Promise of Peace Of course, Alabaster’s signature beautiful photography is on display. The snowscapes evoke an epic and magical feel. Paired alongside the devotionals, they are awe-inspiring. I was most moved to read that Christmas is a promise of peace. I needed this reminder in the midst of our war-torn world. Alabaster offers hope through the beautiful birth of our Savior. This devotional will cause your heart to sing with joy and wonder. My copy of The Advent Devotional was complimentary through Alabaster’s Ambassador Program.
