ADVENT THE WONDROUS MYSTERY An Upper Room Advent Reader Compiled by Benjamin Howard

During Advent, we think about the wondrous mystery of God choosing to become human and living among us. The Savior of the world was born a vulnerable child. The Wondrous Mystery invites you to reflect on several paradoxes of the Advent season: light and darkness, peace and strife, solitude and community, simplicity and complexity. This daily Advent reader incorporates meditations from such renowned writers as Barbara Brown Taylor, Henri J. M. Nouwen, Sue Monk Kidd, Wendell Berry, Wendy M. Wright, and more. The meditations challenge you to reflect on the new and wondrous mystery of God and the profound way Jesus’ birth upends the world as we know it and signals the beginning of God’s kingdom.

SAMPLE EXCERPT The glory of the Advent season is that it’s irrational. It shows us a glimpse of the way that God turns the world and our expectations upside down. In a season that we have increasingly filled with events and get-togethers and family and friends, God calls us to sit quietly and wait for the coming of the Lord. In a season filled with the longest, darkest nights, we are told to wait for the coming of the most beautiful light. In a season of death, we look forward to the birth of eternal life. Though we think of Advent in terms of the Christmas celebration, Advent itself is not a season of celebration. It is a time of waiting, a time when we challenge ourselves and confront ourselves during the deepest, darkest time of the year. It is only at the end of Advent, after weeks of searching our souls, that we celebrate birth and light and life. —Benjamin Howard, in the Introduction

ADVENT BLUE CHRISTMAS Devotions of Light in a Season of Darkness Todd Outcalt

Advent and Christmas are often associated with love, joy, togetherness, and generosity. But this time of year also magnifies loneliness, anxiety, grief, and despair for many people. While others are enjoying celebrations with their friends and families, those who are hurting often feel more alone than ever. In these honest devotions, readers will find their fears and realities named and brought into the light of God’s love. Todd Outcalt invites us to sit with our experiences, acknowledge our losses, and remember Jesus’ promise: “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” Blue Christmas reminds us that all our Christmases, even the darkest ones, can be filled with hope when we bring our deepest fears to God.

SAMPLE EXCERPT Many people do not experience the Advent/Christmas season as a period of joy and light. For many—and perhaps for more of us than would care to admit it— this season transports our greatest fears, losses, realities, and shattered hopes into a time when most people are singing, socializing, and enjoying life to the fullest. We may feel even more lost, more abandoned, more lonely, and more afraid in this season—the season of light and love. So, from the outset, let it be known that this is an honest devotional. Here—in Blue Christmas—readers will find these fears and realities named and brought into the light so that we can confront them with grace and truth. Naming brings an understanding that gives us permission to sit with these experiences, to acknowledge what we have lost, and to honor the grace of Jesus who offers us the word, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted” (Matt. 5:4). —Todd Outcalt, in the Introduction Bookstore.UpperRoom.org | 800.972.0433

LENT WE ARE BELOVED A Lenten Journey with Protestant Prayer Beads Kristen E. Vincent Christians often have the head knowledge that we are beloved, but deep in our hearts do we truly believe it? When we encounter Jesus in scripture, we tend to hear Jesus’ words with judgment, thinking we cannot be beloved because we will never measure up to God’s standards. Kristen Vincent takes us on a journey alongside Jesus that helps break this false understanding and allows us to discover how deeply beloved we are. This 6-week Lenten journey follows stories of Jesus’ experience of God’s love. The incarnate Son of God was made fully human, which means that Jesus had to fully mature in strength and wisdom to learn that he was beloved. Just as Jesus learned of his belovedness, we too can cultivate the wisdom and knowledge that we are deeply loved. Each week begins with a scripture passage, a weekly devotion, reflection questions, an optional prayer bead experience, and a listening meditation. A Leader’s Guide for small-group study is also included. Be transformed by God’s love this Lenten season. CONTENTS • Ash Wednesday: The Way of the Beloved • First Sunday in Lent: Beloved Wonder • Second Sunday in Lent: Beloved Listening • Third Sunday in Lent: Beloved Passion • Fourth Sunday in Lent: Beloved Healing • Fifth Sunday in Lent: Beloved Service • Palm Sunday: Beloved Courage • Good Friday: Beloved Doubt • Easter: Beloved Witness • Leader’s Guide • Introduction to Protestant Prayer Beads • Making Protestant Prayer Beads • Writing Your Own Prayer Bead Experience PAPERBACK

SAMPLE EXCERPT " God is willing to split open the heavens to declare that we are God's beloved children. God wants us to know we bring God much happiness. God called us to live as people who are beloved. From Jesus, we learn that once we come to own God's deep love for us, we cannot help but want to share that news with others." —Kristen Vincent, We Are Beloved

LENT

BECAUSE OF THIS I REJOICE Reading Philippians During Lent Max O. Vincent For too long Lent has been thought of as a season of self-sacrifice and discipline that sounds to many Christians like a list of spiritual chores. Lenten disciplines become the spiritual equivalent of New Year’s resolutions to lose weight, be healthier, or practice better money management. These promises are easily made and often quickly broken, leaving us feeling like we do not meet the standards of what we should be. In his letter to the Philippians, the apostle Paul mentions spiritual practices that draw him closer to God amid persecution and imprisonment. These practices keep Paul connected to a sense of God’s power and presence. Joy flows from Paul and becomes a vital part of his relationship with the Philippians. Because of This I Rejoice is a 6-week study of Philippians that explores what Paul teaches about joyfully practicing spiritual disciplines. The intent of these disciplines is to help us focus less on ourselves and more on God. This Lenten study invites us to engage in the same spiritual practices as a way to grow closer to God and allow joy to flow through our lives.

SAMPLE EXCERPT " Through the resurrection, God transforms the cross from a symbol of shame to a source of Christian living. Joy for Christian living flows from the cross. The cross moves us to focus on God instead of self and to conform our bodies to the life of Christ." —Max Vincent, Because of This I Rejoice

PAUSES FOR LENT 40 Words for 40 Days Trevor Hudson Sometimes a pause is good for the soul. It gives us the chance to regroup, reflect, and refocus on God. In Pauses for Lent, Trevor Hudson offers a beautifully minimalist book in which he focuses on one word for each day of Lent. You are invited to pause, focus on the word, read a scripture and a brief meditation related to the word, and then offer a prayer. Can this book be used as a small-group study? Yes. Hudson encourages you to study this book with at least two or three others. Meet once a week to reflect together on your experiences of the daily practices and share how you sense God speaking to you through the word for each day. PAPERBACK 978-0-8358-1504-8

LENT PAUSES FOR PENTECOST 50 Words for Easter People Trevor Hudson How do you prepare for Pentecost? Did you know that the Christian calendar sets aside a season of 50 days between Easter and Pentecost? The Easter season, sometimes called Eastertide, includes our Lord’s ascension and leads to the Day of Pentecost, when Christians remember the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Jesus’ first followers. Have you ever taken 50 days to deliberately walk the path from Easter to Pentecost? Trevor Hudson writes, “If we are willing to take the time to pause, the season of Eastertide can become a time punctuated with precious moments of encounter with our risen Lord.” Pauses for Pentecost offers 50 brief meditations that guide you to reflect on a biblical word and scripture passage, then do a simple daily practice. The daily practices do not take much time, and they are designed to let the new life of the Resurrection and the power of Pentecost flow into your life. Discover how to open your heart and mind more fully to the joy of Christ, the presence of God, and the power of the Holy Spirit. PAPERBACK 978-0-8358-1763-9

WHY ARE THE DAILY PRACTICES IMPORTANT? Daily spiritual practices provide stability and structure and give us opportunity to open ourselves to God. The discipline of doing a practice regularly helps it become a habit. In Pauses for Pentecost, Hudson suggests a simple practice each day that does not require much time. The practices are intended to reinforce the word for the day and to encourage readers to realize that God wants to meet them in the midst of their everyday lives.

LENT EASTER EARTHQUAKE How Resurrection Shakes Our World James A. Harnish Have you ever been in an earthquake? Earthquakes shake our most basic assumptions: that the ground will remain steady beneath our feet, that the world’s current existence is the way it will always be. But when the ground shakes beneath our feet, it rattles the bedrock assumptions on which we build our lives. The Gospel of Matthew reports that on the first Easter morning, an earthquake rocked the earth, ripped open the tomb, and scared the Roman guards at the tomb, who “shook with fear and became like dead men” (Matthew 28:4). This is the second earthquake recorded by Matthew. The first one took place on Good Friday, when Jesus died and the noonday sky turned black. In Easter Earthquake, James Harnish invites us to place the Resurrection at the center of our Lenten journey. This 6-week study explores how Christ’s resurrection shakes some of our most basic assumptions about ourselves and God. What’s the advantage of a Lenten study that starts at an empty tomb? Many people who use this resource have done Lenten studies that focus primarily on the cross. Starting at the empty tomb and seeing the entire journey through Lent in light of the Resurrection may give readers a different perspective on the Passion and bring fresh energy into their lives as followers of Christ. For those experiencing the Lent-to-Easter journey for the first time, this study will connect them with scripture in a way that leads them to a more personal, practical, and powerful life of discipleship.

PRAISE FOR THIS BOOK “ Jim Harnish invites the devotional reader or study group to share a warm and winsome conversation about the nature of the journey through Lent to Easter. Easter Earthquake is a gift from a pastor’s heart to all who seek to explore more fully the season the ancients called the springtime of the soul.” — Rev. Paul L. Escamilla, Senior Pastor, St. John’s United Methodist Church, Austin, Texas

What is included in this book? This study is created for individual and group study starting on Ash Wednesday and continuing through Easter. Each week contains 5 readings, a prayer focus, suggestions for small-group interaction, and a hymn. The book also includes a guide for daily meditation and prayer, plus an outline for smallgroup gatherings. PAPERBACK 978-0-8358-1716-5

INTERRUPTIONS A 40-Day Journey with Jesus Jacob Armstrong Life is full of interruptions. You have a flat tire on the way to work. Your phone buzzes, signaling yet another text or e-mail. Sometimes a major interruption blindsides you—the death of a loved one, a job loss, a family member in crisis, or a shattering diagnosis. Where is God in all these situations? Instead of viewing interruptions—even big ones—as negative, Jacob Armstrong suggests that interruptions can provide opportunities to hear from God, feel God’s presence, or share God’s love. Interruptions provides a chance for you to set aside your stress for a bit and refocus on God. Armstrong looks at the life of Jesus and gives insights on how you might respond to all the interruptions in your life. The scripture-based meditations guide you to think about interruptions from various angles: • Interruption as an opportunity • Living in a culture of interruptions • Jesus’ response to interruptions • Jesus as an interrupter Armstrong weaves together biblical and contemporary stories in these short, effective devotions. His book will encourage you and remind you that God wants to meet you in all the interruptions of your life. Let’s look again at the interruptions in our days and seek what God might be saying to us through them. PAPERBACK 978-0-8358-1347-1

SAMPLE EXCERPT " Yet, rather than seeing interruptions as annoying speed bumps, Jesus sees them as opportunities for profound redirection, opportunities to share love and light. The interruptions do not keep Jesus from his greater purpose; instead, he sees how the interruptions fit into his greater purpose. Today an unwelcome distraction could mean a new relationship. A change in our schedules could create new opportunities for growth." —Jacob Armstrong, Interruptions
