Merry Christmas!

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - Isaiah 9:6 - Verse Image

It’s the most wonderful time of the year…

2,000 years ago, Jesus came to earth to become Immanuel, “God with us.” And through this one sacrificial act of love, now we get to experience intimacy with God forever!

As we celebrate Jesus’ birth today, here’s how you can spread the great news of His love: share the Verse Image above with your friends and family.

From all of us at YouVersion, we wish you a very Merry Christmas!

Joy

For weeks, we’ve been preparing for Christmas with Advent Prayers, and now Christmas is a week away! Christmas is intended to be a joyous occasion, but how do you choose joy when the world is filled with hurt and hardship?

This week, get vivid reminders of the joy of Christmas with our special YouVersion Original Christmas Plan. If you haven’t begun the Christmas Challenge yet, this is a great way to join.

To help you get started, we’ve provided the first Plan day below:


Day 1: The Story Begins - What exactly is joy? To unpack it, let’s go back to when God created the world.
