    This four-week hybrid DVD series Angels of Christmas: Hearing God’s Voice in Advent, an Advent study by Susan Robb, explores the four angelic visits surrounding the birth of Jesus with Zechariah, Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds. In this study, we will explore the visits and dive deep into the history of the angel Gabriel–and other angels–in the Old Testament. Angels of Christmas uses these four angelic appearances to discuss God’s presence in history and our lives today. The messages of the angels hold meaning for listeners both then and now. Participants are encouraged to get a copy of the book to read along with the DVD series. However, even without having a copy of the book, you are welcome to join in all or any session as able. Click here to attend via zoom. Questions? Contact Jennie Clark.
