There Blooms a Rose in Bethlehem

There Blooms a Rose in Bethlehem

There are so many poignant and moving songs on Prepare Him Room, but I wanted to highlight one that I find particularly beautiful to listen to. “There Blooms a Rose in Bethlehem” is a magnificent song that is subtle in sound yet powerful in message. As with the other songs on the album there is a great effort to show the movement from prophecy to fulfillment to salvation. But in addition, this song brings out the future hope of resurrection that we have in Christ.

Advent Resources for You and Your Family

Advent Resources for You and Your Family

This Christmas I would love for you to behold the wonder and mystery of Christ’s love and work for you by coming into the world to save you from sin and death. The true meaning of Christmas is found in the person of Christ rather than in presents under the tree. We all know this to be true, but it can be hard to find tangible and practical ways to look beyond the presents to the Person. Using an Advent resource that can guide you and your family through the various passages and themes that make up the Christmas story of Christ come to save people from sin. To that end, I have curated a list of resources that you can use for this very purpose. Some of these are freely available online while you can purchase others from a bookstore or online store. I hope that these resources will be a blessing to you and that they will guide you in worshiping Christ this Christmas.
