        Walk A Little Slower with Tanner Olson

        Episode 45: questions to ask yourself as the new year arrives


        Here are a few questions I’m asking myself as 2022 comes to a close:

        What did you learn in 2022?

        What prayers were answered this past year?

        What brought you joy?

        Who do you need to thank for helping you make it through this year?

        What is a memory from this past year that you’ll be holding onto forever?

        What are you leaving behind in 2022?

        What are you taking with you into 2023?

                                              About the Sinner/Saint Devotional: Advent and Christmas (Published by 1517) 

                                              "The day after Halloween, everything around us-ads, store displays, music, and the like-put us on notice: Christmas is coming. With the announcement of Christmas's imminent arrival comes work, work, and more work. We mutter under our breath for lazily storing the Christmas lights in a tangle; we wring our hands over finding good gifts and planning the perfect Christmas meal; every major checklist item includes dozens of decisions and subtasks, each with their own obstacles and pressures to complete. The biggest checklist item: completing all your work with Christmas cheer.

                                              In this pressuring cooker of Christmas preparations, The Sinner/Saint Devotional: Advent and Christmas walks you through these church seasons, shifting your focus from work and checklists and putting it on the work Jesus did and does for you.

                                              Each devotion includes an opening Scripture passage, a devotional thought, a closing prayer, and a suggested Scripture reading for further reflection. They present you with the Gospel of Advent and Christmas: how Christ has come for us and will come for us again. You will be reminded repeatedly that these seasons are not mere past events to remember, but comfort for today. Comfort from the God who keeps his promises and sent his Son for the forgiveness of our sins."
