Episode 37: Hope for the Holidays

 

How does your family celebrate thanksgiving and Christmas?

 

How does your church handle the holidays?

 

Things you can do to build your hope for the holidays

1. Don’t overthink your preaching. Guests need and want a direct message; we don’t have to say something that is new. We all struggle to keep things fresh.
2. Don’t overcommit to external celebrations; it's ok to say no.
3. Keep close to your family.
4. If traveling, remember visiting family is tiring; give your self a day on the return to relax.
5. Remember Christmas is all about God’s intervention in our lives; allow Him time to intervene in yours.
