Traveling with our Ancestors Advent Devotional

From the beloved author of Liberating Love: 365 Love Notes from God comes an inspiring Advent journey with our spiritual ancestors. In these daily devotions, Jha calls upon biblical guides – from Zechariah to Elizabeth, to Mary -to offer wisdom and direction for the weeks leading up to Jesus’ birth. On Saturdays, Jha invites a contemporary “ancestor” such as Rosa Parks, Cesar Chavez, and Father Greg Boyle to help us reflect on how we can be better ancestors for those who come after us. Each entry includes an Advent scripture, reflection, and prayer.

“In this pandemic season of immense loneliness, it was so comforting to be reminded of God-with-us in the ancestors that Jha offers in this devotional. Some were new to me. Many were familiar but even in their familiarity, Jha offered something both timeless and encouraging. I needed this reminder to lean into the experience of others and remember that God is with us all. God has never left us and God will be with us now. This is a five-star review but I do wish that the reflections were longer each day. I wanted more!”

“A lovely honest devotional from an amazing author. Beyond its spiritual value, this devotional introduced me to a number of historical figures I had not known before.”
