Because the Birth of Christ is told every year, our familiarity with the story can cause us to lose sight of how remarkable it is. We invite you to participate with us this Advent season as we seek to fully grasp the Joy of Christ's coming and to prepare room in our days for anticipation and reflection ahead of our Christmas Celebrations. This year we have created 12 audio devotionals for you so you can listen each week beginning the Friday after Thanksgiving with new episodes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays leading up to Christmas.  Our prayer is that this will provide a scaffold for each Sunday's Service utilizing our Prepare, Attend, Reflect, Act discipleship rhythm as a way to take the messages deeper into our hearts and homes.***The first Advent Reflection will be available beginning Friday, November 28th***
