For many of us, Christmas means overstuffed schedules, credit card debt, and skyrocketing stress. We struggle to find the connection between our holiday to-do lists and the story of Jesus’ birth. So we’re in a conspiracy together to flip the script. This week, Pastor Jason Bentley talks about how choosing mission over entertainment is one way to do that.
The Christmas story is a story of love, hope, redemption and relationship. So, what happened? How did it turn into stuff, stress and debt? Somehow, we’ve traded the best story in the world for the story of what’s on sale. Pastor Jason encourages us to choose a revolutionary Christmas through engaging in the conspiracy of choosing the king of less over the king of more.
The apostle John wrote about a Christmas conspiracy that predated the original Christmas in Bethlehem- in the very beginning, when all was dark but there was light and the light prevailed. It’s time for another Christmas conspiracy. One where we conspire against the norms of the holiday season in order to enjoy more hope, peace and joy than ever before. This message by Pastor Jason Bentley will inspire you to do something differently this Christmas.

One aspect of what it means to be blessed is to see the blessings we already have and to be grateful for them. To do this, we must focus on our blessings. Guest contributor Pastor Mitch Phelps helps us to count our blessings.
God's vision was and is to bless the people He created. The other part of His vision is to bless the world through us. This vision will not be fulfilled unless it is fulfilled through us. We must bring God's blessing to the world. To do this requires us adopting a new outlook- one of an Agent of Blessing.
We've all been challenged to Carpe Diem. But what does that mean to you- seize the pleasure of the moment or seize the purpose out of life? We cannot live in God's full blessing if we are not living a life of purpose. Blessing Is Inextricably Connected To Purpose.
