This free, printable Christmas Advent Calendar with Bible Verses can be framed and used year after year while your family learns about Jesus from Scripture!
When I was a kid, I honestly thought Advent was another word for those little cardboard 3D calendars with the chocolates in them. It wasn’t that I didn’t know that Christmas was about the birth of Jesus. I mean, we made him a cake every year. But I didn’t know that Advent is a season we spend celebrating the coming of the King of the Universe, Jesus.
When my kids look back on their childhood, I want them to remember Christmas as a time focused on Jesus, on the gospel, and on God’s plan for humanity.
Do you ever purpose to spend the entire Advent season pointing your kids to Jesus, just to have the busyness of the season overwhelm you?
Do you know there are Scriptural Nativity themes you could be focusing on with your kids each day, but you just don’t have time to pull them together and organize them?
Do you wonder if your kids will grow up thinking Christmas is all about them and their gifts?
Me too.
Hey! There’s a giant giveaway and a free Advent Calendar in this post!
Bible Verses for Advent
It doesn’t have to be that way. In just a few minutes each day of Advent, your family can read through themed Bible verses about the birth of Christ. Your kids will learn to make important connections between Old Testament prophecy and the New Testament fulfillment of prophecy. They’ll learn about important Scriptural themes like:
- The Promise of Jesus
- Jesus’ Family
- Jesus’ Royalty
- Zechariah and his Reaction
- The Coming of the King
- Shepherds Worshiping Jesus
- And more!
Christmas Advent Calendar with Bible Verses
Make this year a year your kids truly begin to understand and remember the gift the Lord gave us. His plan for our salvation began before his creation of the world. The Lord’s prophets told us of Jesus’ coming, and Jesus fulfilled those prophecies.
In 2 Peter 1:16, Peter tells us:
For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
Jesus’ birth is not a myth, nor are the extraordinary circumstances surrounding it. The birth of Jesus Christ is a well documented fact, as is his life, crucifixion, and resurrection. We can make his miraculous coming real to our kids.

Display Your Christmas Advent Calendar Every Year for Family Worship
Frame your Advent calendar, and display it every year for use during December. Make this a tradition that will last!
Beginning December 1st, read that day’s Scripture readings. I recommend find a time each day to read with your kids, like at breakfast or at dinner. That way, you won’t forget to read together.
Have your kids help you locate the Scriptures in the Bible. Take turns reading a paragraph each and discuss what you learned about the Incarnation of Christ that day!

Elizabeth Ahlgrim says
November 12, 2018 at 5:59 amMy family and classroom would be blessed by this money. Moving from upper intermediate to second grade has been a struggle.

Laura Stephenson says
November 13, 2018 at 8:13 amI would use the money to help our family of 6 move into another house. God Bless and thank you for the giveaway.
Tiana Senn says
November 13, 2018 at 10:14 pmMy daughter is blessed enough to be skilled and on the competition team in gymnastics, however the fees are extremely expensive and the uniform is outrageous as well. While $500 shockingly won’t cover all of the expenses, it surely would bless our family during the holidays when money is tight. Thank you very much for the opportunity.
Jennifer Dages says
November 15, 2018 at 2:22 pmI would use it to pay for some bills that need to be paid and would probably buy a membership to a Science museum for 2019.

Amber B says
November 18, 2019 at 7:46 amThis is such a great group to come across! Thank you for advertising the giveaway. I feel like I’ve won already. Next year I plan to begin homeschooling my oldest and these resources are excellent. Thank you so much ladies!!
Amber B says
November 18, 2019 at 7:59 amIf we won the $500 Giveaway, it would bless my family tremendously. Our situation is one too long for explaining, but it involves multiple out of state moves with two little girls over the last year. My husband works in ministry. We live on very little and desire to adopt one day. The money would not go to Christmas presents and extras. The money would be used to pay for our essentials. We might go out for a meal and offer to pay for another struggling family. God be glorified!
Amy Hall says
November 18, 2019 at 11:31 amI need a better advent plan.
Amy Hall says
November 18, 2019 at 11:32 amThis would be helpful as my husband was affected by the GM layoff this year – off work for 6 weeks. He did eventually get paid for a lot of it but in the meantime we put a lot of stuff on credit cards. Right after we needed a new dishwasher, lol, and the end of the year is always fun on money with two kid birthdays and Christmas! 😀
Rebekah Garrison says
November 18, 2019 at 2:35 pmWe have a book that explains Advent that we really enjoy. I am going to print your Advent calendar. I’m sure my children will like it, too.
Rebekah Garrison says
November 18, 2019 at 2:39 pmIt would be a huge blessing to win the $500 giveaway. This year has been tough for us. We had health and financial struggles plus our youngest child was diagnosed with a speech and language disorder.
Heather Zalenski says
November 18, 2019 at 7:21 pmThe artwork is very nice on the advent study!
Heather Zalenski says
November 18, 2019 at 7:26 pmThe $500 would be a blessing to help with the classes I teach at our local homeschool co-op! It could buy supplies for a lego stem class or a high school science lab class and these supplies could be passed down each year to bless the next group of kids.
Texas Momma says
November 18, 2019 at 7:30 pmAn extra $500 would allow us to double the number of angel tree kids we adopt this year! I’d also use some to purchase a few pieces of curriculum we need for next year.
Texas Momma says
November 18, 2019 at 7:32 pmExcited to use the Advent calendar this December. I was just thinking about looking for something when I saw the email with it. 😊
Barb Umland says
November 18, 2019 at 8:06 pmWhat a generous give away during the Christmas season! If we won, I would splurge a bit more at Christmas after tithing and taking my family out to dinner to celebrate!
Barb says
November 18, 2019 at 8:11 pmI just have to add a plug for your Bible Road Trip curriculum! I have an 8th grade son and triplet 5th grade girls. We enjoy sitting down together each morning and studying God’s Word. They especially love the recommended read along stories. They bring the Bible alive to my kids in a way that they remember. Thank you for this wonderful resource!
Jennifer Mathesz says
November 18, 2019 at 8:22 pmUsing the Thanksgiving calendar already Thx!
Jennifer Mathesz says

Angie M says
November 20, 2019 at 11:14 amThis giveaway would go for several things at our house: a few winter clothes our kids could use, Christmas gifts, and to help a relative who was recently injured and cannot work right now. This is a very generous giveaway!
Rachel Griffy says

Sarah S says
November 26, 2019 at 3:54 amThank you so much for the Advent calendar! I’m really desiring to be very intentional this year with my family. We aim to do a Christ centered advent each year, but I want to include more of the activities, as well, since Christmas can so easily get highjacked by busyness and dwelling on the presents. Thanks for the opportunity to enter the giveaway!
Sarah S says
November 26, 2019 at 4:00 amMy husband is a pastor, and our family is planning to attend the Southern Baptist Convention in Orlando in June. We’re saving up for a couple of days at Disney world while we’re there, and this would definitely help! Thank you for the opportunity to enter!
