About:

This Advent, lead your family closer to Christ as you prepare for the Lord’s coming at Christmas. Engage with the Old Testament patriarchs and prophets who are the branches in Jesus’ family tree and come to understand fully how, in Christ, this family history becomes the history of our salvation.

As you explore Jesus’ fascinating ancestry, you’ll see how God’s plan of salvation unfolds from Adam and Eve, through the Old Testament prophets, to the birth of Christ, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and the sacraments of the Church. Marvel at the parallels between Adam and Christ, the New Adam; Eve and Mary, the New Eve;
the patriarch Joseph and St. Joseph, guardian of the Redeemer; and others.

You will also learn about the rich, faith-building customs surrounding the Jesse Tree throughout the centuries — and how to create your own. The image of a beautiful ornament signifying an important person or event in the Bible is provided for each day. The daily meditation explains the mystery of the ornament that is featured. And
extra information is included for families with older children who want to “dig deeper” into the significance of what is foretold.

The devotion in practice takes five to fifteen minutes per day, depending on family needs and style. Each day features the following:
• Full-color ornament with a distinguishing symbol
• Biblical passage or story illustrating the theme
• Brief, engaging meditation with questions for discussion
• Traditional prayer to enrich the devotion
• “Dig Deeper” section for real-life application
