Don’t anyone panic, we’re not skipping Thanksgiving! 

 

But we are chatting with Ruth Chou Simons about advent and why the posture of our hearts as we enter the holiday season matters. Ruth is hilariously practical and talks about her scrapbooking skills (or lack thereof) and her propensity to lose sight of what matters this time of year… if her perfectionist ways take over. 

 

Ruth reminds us that there’s an opportunity to experience Jesus even during a time of year packed with family, parties, and preparations.

 

She also has the most BEAUTIFUL advent book available now—a 25 day journey leading up to Christmas. I’m going to be using this book all of Advent and would love for you to join me. 

 

Today’s a fun conversation about holidays, family, and maintaining a posture that invites Jesus to be near in the middle of it all.
