In the first half of a Christmas-tide mini-series about giving and receiving, colleagues in ministry Erica, Sarah, Natalie, and Steve are exploring a theology of giving... and of receiving.  What does it mean to think of God fundamentally as a Giver? What gifts of God have always been a part of our lives such that we might forget they are there or take them for granted?  How is our faith affected by seeing Jesus as the one whom "God gave" for the love of the world?  And how does it change our perspective on daily life to see all of our existence--and indeed the universe itself--as a gift that didn't have to be this way?
