Following the Star

I clicked on a great link from an Associated Baptist Press release this morning.

"Following the Star" is a well-produced devotional guide geared toward youth and young adults, but I think us "older folks" would benefit from it as well. Focused on the Advent season and the preparation of Christ's arrival, an animated star moves across the top of the screen as you click from the "Presence of God" intro, to "the Word of God," to the "Devotion," to the "Conversation with God" (prayer), and the Benediction. Other helpful guides explain each section-- very well done.

The devotions are written by Tracy Hartman, professor of homiletics and practical theology at Baptist Theological Seminary in Richmond, Virginia.

I stayed at the site longer than I should have just to listen to the beautiful and gentle guitar music (by Rodrigo Rodriguez) playing in the background. His stylings of Christmas hymns alone are worth checking this site out.
