Her Theology

Send us a textAs we reach the final day of our Christmas Advent series, we turn our eyes fully and finally to Jesus Himself.In this closing devotion, we sit with the seven “I Am” statements found in the Gospel of John — Jesus’ own words revealing who He is: the Bread of Life, the Light of the World, the Gate, the Good Shepherd, the Resurrection and the Life, the Way, the Truth and the Life, and the True Vine.Whether your Christmas season has been full or heavy, joyful or exhausting, this episode calls us back to what truly sustains us — Christ at the centre.As we prepare to step into a new year, we are reminded that Jesus is not only who we need at Christmas, but who we need every day.“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)Jesus says: Come to Me.📖 Scriptures from John 6, 8, 10, 11, 14, 15 & Matthew 11🎄 Advent Finale | Her TheologyFollow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube.

Send us a textChristmas can feel chaotic, exhausting, or even lonely — but what if the true joy of Christmas has nothing to do with how much you have or how well things are going? In today’s Advent devotional, Cass shares the closing portion of one of Charles Spurgeon’s Christmas sermons on Immanuel — God With Us. Spurgeon reminds us that Christianity is not about extravagance or empty tradition, but about the staggering reality that God has drawn near.Whether you are grieving, overwhelmed, far from family, or surrounded by noise and celebration, this truth remains: God is with you.In this episode, we explore:What Emmanuel truly means for everyday lifeWhy “God with us” is comfort for sufferers and terror for SatanHow Christians can feast and rejoice with little or muchWhy Christmas joy is rooted in Christ, not circumstancesThis episode is part of the Her Theology Advent series — where theology meets everyday life.Scripture-rich, Christ-centred, and deeply encouraging for the Christmas season.https://www.spurgeon.org/resource-library/sermons/the-birth-of-christFollow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube.

Send us a textAs Christmas draws near, we turn our eyes back to the greatest gift of all — Jesus Christ.In Day 22 of our Advent series, John Owen (1616–1683) walks us through Scripture to show why Christ is precious to those who believe. Christ is our light, our rock, our life, and the bread of our souls. Everything good, desirable, and eternal is found in Him, from Him, and through Him.This devotion is saturated in Scripture and invites us to treasure Christ rightly — not sentimentally, but deeply, joyfully, and faithfully.May this Christmas be marked by hearts that truly see the worth of Christ.https://www.crossway.org/articles/10-things-you-should-know-about-john-owen/?srsltid=AfmBOooJBEnXidx0RXbRaexvZesthIYs9wxSS7ZhOXkAWwUJQ47uMTCFhttps://archive.org/details/meditationsdisco00owen/page/n17/mode/2up🎧 Subscribe for daily Advent devotions with voices from church history.Her Theology — where theology meets everyday life.Follow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube.

Send us a textWhat does true worship actually look like?In Day 21 of our Advent series Daily Devotions with Dead People, we turn to Lucy Hutchinson (1620–1681) to reflect on worship as both internal and external—not just what we sing, but how we live, kneel, pray, and orient our whole selves before God.Lucy reminds us that worship without the heart is hypocrisy, but worship that claims to be “spiritual” while rejecting embodied obedience is only half-worship. True worship involves faith, reverence, love, posture, obedience, and joy—offered wholly to God as Creator, Redeemer, and Benefactor.As Christmas approaches, this episode invites us to examine how we worship privately and publicly, in church and at home, with both soul and body.📖 Text adapted and lightly modernised from The Principles of Christian Religion (public domain). 🔗 Original text https://archive.org/details/onprinciplesofch00hutc/page/216/mode/2upFollow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube.

Send us a textWhat is the greatest gift we receive at Christmas?In this Day 20 Advent devotional, Cass explores the joy of the gospel through the words of William Tyndale (1494–1536) — the man who translated the Bible into English so that everyone, from ploughboy to king, could read God’s Word.Tyndale describes the gospel using the Greek word Evangelion — good, merry, glad, and joyful tidings — news so wonderful it makes the heart leap for joy. This episode reflects on why the gospel is not merely information, tradition, or religion, but the good news of freedom, forgiveness, and life in Christ.Tyndale reminds us that Christ has fought and conquered sin, death, and the devil, and that all who believe are given His righteousness, His life, and His salvation — not by merit, but by grace.As we approach Christmas, this devotional calls us to refocus our hearts on what truly brings joy, and to boldly share this good news with our families, friends, neighbours, and communities.In this episode, you’ll hear:Why the gospel is called “joyful tidings”How Christ’s victory brings true freedom and happinessWhy the gospel alone satisfies the human heartA powerful reminder of the cost paid to give us Scripture in our own languageA call to live — and share — the joy of salvation this Christmas📖 Full text source https://archive.org/details/doctrinaltreatis0000tynd/page/20/mode/2up 🌿 Part of the Her Theology Advent series: Daily Devotions with Dead PeopleFollow @hertheology on Instagram & YouTube.
