PRESENCE AND PATIENCE

Keywords: Advent, Christmas

This collection of videos is meant to facilitate discussion around the themes of presence and patience during the Advent season. The season is about Divine presence, it is about patiently waiting for God's presence among us. While the Christmas celebration has become one of the most important church holidays of the year; it has also become one of the busiest times of the year. The sad truth is, this celebration of presence is the most difficult of times to be truly present to those closest to us.

As you lead your group through these videos may you find the time and space to be truly present to one another. We try to create videos that are, above all, honest; and we do so prayerfully and expectantly. We hope what we create is anointed to affect change. As you lead discussion, we urge you, therefore, to press into honesty for the sake of those you lead.
