The Immanent Frame
SummaryThis devotional guides believers into a transformative Advent encounter with God through Scripture and prayer. It begins with a traditional Advent collect, asking God to dispel darkness and prepare hearts for both Christ’s birth and His future return. The focus is on engaging Scripture not for knowledge alone but for spiritual intimacy with Jesus through the Holy Spirit. It introduces a 20-minute guided prayer using Isaiah 9, read four times with different intentions—acquaintance, friendship, intimacy, and worship—inviting whole-person engagement and openness to emotion and healing. The Emmaus story illustrates how Jesus reveals Himself through Scripture, underscoring the goal of encounter over information. The devotional includes musical resources, a downloadable guide, and closes with a blessing for an Advent journey marked by God’s presence in everyday waiting and worship.
