All 3 years & Late Start Plan read the same readings in December
In December, the theme of the readings is The Coming of the Messiah. Each day, beginning from the first chapters of Genesis, the whole Bible has a single theme: God’s rescue and renewal of his people by the Messiah in his first and second comings. The December readings are meant to be a “walk through the Bible” of the prophecies of the coming of the Messiah, tying together the prophecies in the Old Testament with their fulfillment in the New Testament, and each day, provide a particular aspect of the Messiah on which to meditate. Today, meditate on Jesus as the descendant of Eve who will crush Satan’s head and save us from our sins – God’s rescue to undo the damage we did in the Garden of Eden, reconciling us to Him and to one another and preparing us for heaven.
A hint of the Savior in the Garden… “He shall bruise your head and you shall bruise his heel.” Genesis 3:15
