This year’s Advent Devotional, from Illustrated Ministry, is available in the kiosk in the
Gathering Place. In Light & Darkness is a weekly devotional based on scripture
showing how light and darkness exist together.

The short reflections explore the theme of light and darkness
in Advent scriptures. How we understand these ideas affects how we view God, our faith, and our world.
Inspired by Barbara Brown Taylor’s book, Learning to Walk in the Dark, we re-frame

traditional understandings of light as good, and darkness as bad or evil. Instead, we explore how light and dark
exist together in balance, not opposition. If you would prefer a digital copy of the devotional, email Pastor Chrissy.
