Each year Fresno Pacific University looks forward to the Christmas season with an Advent Devotional. This year's series, themed "Hope of the World" (Matthew 12:21), contains entries written by the FPU community and leaders of some of the Valley nonprofits that put hands and feet to God’s commandments to love and serve. We hope this devotional helps you and your family prepare for the joyous coming of our Savior Jesus Christ. To see new entries every day during December, visit our Advent blog at 8:00 a.m. (PST): blogs.fresno.edu/advent
