Check out this deep dive we did in 2023. 7: 18 - “I always think that Christmas is a bit like an emotional magnifying glass. If you feel loved and happy, Christmas will make you feel even happier and more loved. But if you feel lonely or unloved, the magnifier gets to work and makes all those bad things feel bigger and worse.” - That Christmas (2024)  8:11 - Mary and Elizabeth celebrate together, Luke 1:39-5611:35 - Luke 2:19 13:45 - "Yet when we hear about this song of praise and when we realize that God did not send one angel alone, but that the multitude of the heavenly host was present with their song of praise, might we not be carried away just as we fall in step when a good band plays or unconsciously hum or whistle a well-known tune that falls on our ears? That would be it! Then we would freely listen to and freely participate in the Christmas story!"— Karl Barth17:50 - Honest Advent by Scott Erickson22:30 - Phillipians 4:722:51 - The Lives We Actually Have by Kate BowlerDid this spark some curiosity around Christmas and advent traditions for you?
