Seven Reasons to Celebrate Advent

What is Advent? Many christians struggle with the busyness and the feelings of loss that often accompany the lights and trees at this time of year. How should a Christian feel about how we “do” Christmas in our consumeristic age, and how do we make sure Christmas stays about what it should be about, the birth of Christ? In this episode we examine an article by Ryan Shelton for Desiring God which gives us seven reasons to incorporate the sense of longing that Advent brings into our Christmas experience.
