I loved getting to create this project alongside my friend and artist, Kathlyn Chan.

Throughout the devotional, you’ll see Kathlyn’s artwork woven in. Kathlyn and her family serve in Guatemala, where she uses creativity to reach and encourage those with physical and mental needs, sharing the hope of the gospel through every brushstroke. You can learn more about their incredible ministry here: cornerstoneinternational.org/chan.

Four Women and the God Who Keeps His Promises is a four-part devotional tracing God’s faithfulness through the stories of Eve, Anna, Elizabeth, and Mary. Each reading leans into an Advent theme: hope, peace, joy, and love. These themes remind us that God’s promises are never forgotten and His purposes are never delayed.

Whether you read one story each week or all at once, our prayer is that these devotionals, creative wonderings, illustrations, and reflection questions meet you right where you are this Christmas season. May they help you slow down, pay attention, and marvel at the goodness of God as we rejoice together in the promises He keeps.

We are so grateful to share our hearts with you in every word and every painting.
