Our Devotionals
During certain seasons of the church year we invite artists and writers to reflect on scripture drawing us deeper into the season. Here are a few recent devotionals we’ve produced as a community.
Advent 2024
This children’s devotional was designed as a kid-friendly companion to the
2024 NSCBC Advent Devotional. Each O Antiphon has been paraphrased
with more accessible language for children.Each page is actually a coloring page featuring a large icon symbolic of that
particular name for Jesus. Children are encouraged to color and explore!
Advent 2024
Each year, NSCBC authors and artists contribute to a devotional that prepares our hearts for the season of Advent. As a community, we walk together in the longing of Advent, clinging to beauty and the hope of the King who is to come. This year, our artists’ contributions are organized around a set of seven prayers called the O Antiphons, which are anthems sung responsively that have been used in the season of Advent for thirteen-hundred years. Rich with biblical language and themes, they cry out, ‘Come!’
Easter 2024
The Way of Light is the Eastertide complement to the Way of the Cross. Just as the Way of the Cross depicts the stations (moments or scenes) leading to the cross, the Way of Light depicts resurrection appearances. The Way of Light is the leg of the journey between disorientation and reorientation. As a church, we explore Jesus’ life anew every year. As we do this, we invite Jesus to carve into our souls the truth that “through the Cross (one comes) to the light.”
