We reflect on the distinction between being a fan and being a true follower of Christ, exploring the crowd's shallow desires for miracles versus the depth of faith that Jesus calls us to. Digging into John 6, we discover the significance of Jesus as the bread of life and how our spiritual diets influence our faith journeys.

- examining the culture of fandom in entertainment and faith
- discussing Jesus' encounter with the crowd seeking more miracles
- contrasting the crowd's expectations with Jesus' spiritual teachings
- exploring the meaning behind Jesus' declaration as the bread of life
- reflecting on the nature of belief and what it means to truly follow Jesus
- considering the challenges of a spiritual diet and its impact on faith
- emphasizing the importance of engaging deeply with scripture

call to action: "As we celebrate this Advent season, may we look beyond the lights and tinsel to the manger. We can be fans of Christmas, the gifts, and Santa, but may we be true followers of the One who came, the Savior, who calls us to the most incredible meal we could ever imagine."
