Restoring the Scandal of Christmas - The Advent Conspiracy

Advent is here! Wow - it's come very fast this year. But it is perhaps one of the most misunderstood seasons of the Church Year. This is from the Advent Conspiracy's website:

The story of Christ's birth is a story of promise, hope, and a revolutionary love.

So, what happened? What was once a time to celebrate the birth of a savior has somehow turned into a season of stress, traffic jams, and shopping lists.

And when it's all over, many of us are left with presents to return, looming debt that will take months to pay off, and this empty feeling of missed purpose. Is this what we really want out of Christmas?

What if Christmas became a world-changing event again?

Welcome to Advent Conspiracy.

Worship Fully

Spend Less

Give More

Love All

And now for a nice video
