Hymnology: The First Nowell

• God’s Word Prepares Us
  As we enter the season of Advent we look to make our hearts ready for Christ to enter. We also look to the skies for his coming again; ready to take all believers with him to heaven.
  
  Our Christ Light lessons for this week focus on preparing our hearts for Christ by taking a closer look at the TV shows we watch. Students have kept track of the shows they watched and taken a closer look at what some of them contain. We will be comparing the content of these shows to the use of our free time that God would want for us.
