About the author

She Reads Truth is a worldwide community of women who read God's Word together every day. Founded in 2012, She Reads Truth invites women of all ages to engage Scripture through curated daily reading plans, as well as online conversation led by a vibrant community of contributing writers. This community of “Women in the Word of God every day” represents a long list of cities and countries, a variety of backgrounds and traditions, and countless real-life stories. But there is a commonality that binds us: we believe God's Word is Truth. So we read. Every day we read a new passage together—working our way through books of the Bible, topics that matter, and seasons of the Church calendar. We engage with God's Word and with each other. And we keep coming back, on the hard days and the good days, because God and His Word never change, regardless of our circumstances.

Thanks for the guided meditation through this advent season; our year has been heavy but these were wonderful reminders of God’s faithfulness to provide.

5 ⭐️ This was my Bible Study book for the Advent Season 2025. Turns out it was a fitting end to the year. This book was very well done. I loved the aesthetic and the content. I liked that the Bible verses were included in the study. I liked that there were only 5 days a week so I could easily stay on track by catching up on the weekends. I LOVED the recipes and crafts included as extras. I made several of each. I’ve done a lot of Bible studies over the years, this one surprised me. I’m looking forward to doing their next study, Acts in January. I highly recommend the She Reads Truth studies.

Really enjoyed this! There are a few days left, but life happened so I dropped off. Will likely be doing their study again next year!

wonderful study of time leading up to Christmas. Great short meaningful lessons mixed with recipes and crafts.

This was the first year I did Advent studies, and I really enjoyed them. This one carried through past Christmas Day, which I enjoyed. It also had some crafts and recipes, which I thought were nice, extra touches. The content was very good, and helped me think about the coming of Christ more this year than focusing on the materialism of the season.

This was an amazing compliment to the season, my personal growth and opportunity for worship and focus not just for Christmas but to set the tone for 2026. It was beautiful and special and balanced scripture with personal reflections and opportunities for accountability. I can't wait to 2026 experience.

Such a fun advent book! The pages and graphics and just so festive and beautiful, which made me way more motivated:) I really enjoyed that it went past Christmas, and feel like I reflected more on the Christmas season in general, rather than it just being over after the day is through. I do wish I had more guided reflection questions, but overall it was great!

This was nice. I liked the mix of things throughout the month. I wish it had more gathered thoughts. I feel like newer Christians may find it harder to understand. I did like the mix of scriptures throughout each day.

Advent Study 2025. I loved how it started at creation and led up to the birth of Christ, showing how all of scripture is connected and points us to Jesus. It was a great way to end the year and set us up perfectly to begin the Acts study in January!

My favorite SRT study of the year is always Advent! A great reminder of the waiting in the past and the waiting in the now. God blesses us through the waiting times and we can celebrate all of the goodness.

The She Reads Truth Advent studies are always my favorite studies in their yearly reading plans. This one certainly didn't disappoint and left me feeling encouraged and hopeful as we wait for the second advent.

Beautifully illustrated book with scripture, crafts, recipes, and reflections to make the most of this adventure season. Definitely was more on the aesthetic side than the aptitude side.

I loved this book for reading during the Advent Season. It really makes you stop and consider why we celebrate Christmas.

Loved the exhortation to fix our eyes on Jesus during the holiday season and into the New Year!

[Karen · Rating 5 out of 5]

I think this was my favorite Advent study ever. I’m sad for it to end.

[Alissa · Rating 4 out of 5]

I enjoyed this, but I wish there was a little bit more commentary.

[Clint Smith · Rating 5 out of 5]

My wife and I do this Advent study every year. 10/10 would recommend. I do the He Reads Truth version.

[Mayson Quinnett · Rating 5 out of 5]

Such a great advent study to read scriptures about who Jesus is, why He came, and the hope and peace He offers us. Highly recommend!

[Kelby Rucker · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really loved this Advent study. The extras with context, historical info and details on the origins of several Christmas traditions were helpful too!

[Jason Soroski · Rating 5 out of 5]

Visually beautiful pages and well-chosen scripture and devotions that truly capture the season

[K H · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another good year of preparing my heart for Christmas. I have to say that none of their Advent books have ever been disappointing. I would recommend checking out this and Lent readings.

Beautifully done with the most gorgeous pictures and recipes and just truly a wonderful way to bring in the true meaning of the season.

I always enjoy the She Reads Truth advent study each year.

This was an instagram purchase and I’m so glad I did! She Reads Truth publishes Bible studies and Advent devotionals, but this is the first one I’ve done. When it arrived in the mail, I felt like I was receiving an early Christmas present - the packaging was so beautiful! And the book itself is gorgeous with full color photographs and aesthetic layouts. There are bonus pages with craft and recipe ideas, and plenty of room to journal. I will definitely be anticipating the 2026 Advent study this year!
