What about you? Are you willing to lose everything for the kingdom of God?
“Then he said to the crowd, ‘If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but are yourself lost or destroyed?
If anyone is ashamed of me and my message, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in his glory and in the glory of the Father and the holy angels.” Luke 9: 23-26 (NLT).
Do these passages stir your heart? Church-goers hear them every year as part of the #Advent readings.
“The angel went to her and said, ‘Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.’
Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.
You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.
He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”

Roger Stone nailed it: If you’re not glued to social media, you’ve probably missed the intense infighting tearing through conservative circles right now. That’s a good thing!
Let’s consider staying off the social media feed, and we won’t get dragged into the drama, or deceived by once respected voices who’ve joined the dark side.
Sometimes, we all need a digital detox.
Who else is seeking peace, unity, and real-life connections over endless online battles this Christmas/holiday season?
Let’s hear it!
