Monday, December 7, 2009 Advent Conspiracy: Worship Fully

The true story of Christ's birth is a story of promise, hope, and revolutionary love.

"It starts with Jesus. It ends with Jesus. It’s a season where we are called to put down our burdens and lift a song up to our God. It’s a season where love wins, peace reigns, and a king is celebrated with each breath. It’s the party of the year.

Entering the story of advent means entering this season with an overwhelming passion to worship Jesus to the fullest."

We've already talked about spending less and giving more this Christmas by giving of ourselves. Giving relationally mean giving more. We've also talked about loving all. By spending less on at least one less frivolous gift this year, we will be able to give a gift that truly makes a difference. Just $3.50 provide a Christmas gift for a child that has never received one.

Embrace these concepts and you will encounter Christ's Advent like never before. You will find yourself making a tangible difference in your family, community, and the world. And you will be more free to worship fully!

A FAMILY CHRISTMAS

We now challenge you to bring these concepts together and join us for a special Friday Night FWD Family Christmas. It will be an opportunity to give more of yourself through that precious gift of time and presence with your loved ones.

We invite you to come and create some ornaments with your kids or that special someone. Help decorate some yummy Christmas cookies. Sing some holiday favorites together. And then share the wonder of the original Christmas story.

After all, it's the party of the year.

More details here, but for now, you are invited to join us on Friday, December 18 @ 7pm. Share a fun and memorable evening and encounter the heart of Christmas with your family.

This is your opportunity to enter the story and worship fully. Enter the Advent Conspiracy.
