It is right and good to have paused and given ourselves fully to this season of thanksgiving. We have so much to be thankful for, and we at Journey onWord are thankful for you. It is our sincere hope and prayer that your day was meaningful, and you were surrounded by His love and that of those you hold most dear.
Tomorrow’s dawn fires the starting pistol on the “race” to Christmas. It seems as though the gap between these two holidays narrows a bit more each year. Maybe you’ve already started preparing, maybe you’re close to being done, or maybe you’ve already lost hope that you’ll be able to get it all done in time.
Wherever today finds you, we invite you to spend the next four Sundays with us in the intentional period of Advent. Advent … a noun … a coming into place, view, or being. With the pressures, and stresses, and hurry of our everyday, the Christmas season can come and go without the birth of Jesus ever coming into place, view or being. We invite you to take a little time with us each Sunday for the next four weeks leading up to Christmas Day, to unplug and consider a devotional thought that points our minds and hearts towards the birth of Jesus.
The format of these posts will be unlike any we have done before. You’ll be able to sit back and listen, rather than read. (IMPORTANT NOTE: A transcript of each post will be made available on request for anyone who prefers it, or may be hearing impaired.)
We are excited to share this season of Advent with you, and pray that it will be a help in making the celebration of our Savior’s birth come into place, view or being in your own life.
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Journey onWord!
Mike, Genel, Tom and Mark

Thank you for all the inspiration and encouragement you give us.
