What traditions do you and your family celebrate around the season of Advent and Christmas? And what becomes the focus of this season? Rev. Mike Weaver continues the Advent series challenging the worldview and societal norms of the west that Christmas isn’t about what the commercial world would have us believe. The turkey and tinsel so to speak are the peripheral stuff of Christmas. The focus should Jesus. It was, is and always will be Jesus and when we allow Him to be the focus of our lives, we can only come in praise. So, listen as Pastor Mike consider the praise of Mary who in the Magnificat recognises her own need of a saviour. That saviour IS Jesus, who brings us value and dignity in this life – why would He not be your focus today?
