We’re moving closer to Christmas. Ironically, this is about the time when ads and expectations and schedules pull us further from Christ.

For sure, there is an abundance to this season but not in the commercial way you may be thinking. 

Strip away the fussy garland and the must-have linens and the coordinated outfits. 

Let’s listen for the call to you and me; inviting us to a more Christ-like Christmas. 

Highlights:

How much of the way we expect to make Christmas meaningful, how much we pursue has more to do with the culture and media have put in front of us than what God has put in front of us

When we seek to make Christmas about Christ in a way that moves us, draws us, reorients us, helps connect us with the truth of who God is and why we worship him in the first place. Do we do so around a liturgy of commercialism or around a truly Christian liturgy?

The commercial liturgy in the U.S. is powerful and embedded in us.

Homework:

How can we reorient our hearts around Christ himself this Christmas?

• Seek out Christ in the lowly, the lost, the widow, the orphan - seek out those who cannot pay you back this Christmas.
• Is there step, a little sacrifice you can make so you can experience a Christ-centered Christmas?
• Invite him into our home through the least and the lost.
