More Than a Manger: An Advent Study

A four-week study beginning November 30 in the free First 5 mobile app!

 

For every broken place, chaotic day, and weary heart … Jesus came so we don’t have to carry it all alone.

 

Have you ever reached the end of December feeling exhausted, disconnected, and wondering if you missed the point of Christmas altogether? You’re not alone.

 

Between family gatherings, church commitments, work deadlines, and the weight of unmet expectations, it’s easy to be swept up in the holiday hustle and lose sight of what our hearts need most.

 

That’s why we created More Than a Manger — to remind us that the hope of Christmas didn’t start in Bethlehem; it’s been God’s plan from the very beginning. Through this four-week study, you’ll find encouragement for weary days, connection when the season feels lonely, and the kind of peace and joy that only comes when Christ is at the center of it all.
