Message: What Our Hearts Need
Speaker: Tim Bounds
Read:
Psalm 30:11-12, James 5:8, Matthew 25:1-13, Romans 5:8, Philippians 2:5
Reflect:
1. Do you have any Advent traditions? Do you have a calendar, wreaths, candles - or something fun?
2. What about Christmas music? Got any strong opinions about when to start listening to it? Declare those opinions (gently).
3. Have you ever felt like there was a mess you just could not fully clean up? What was going on?
4. How can you "roll out the red carpet" to receive Jesus this Advent season?
5. Will you participate with Advent Conspiracy this year? If so, take a few minutes and journal how you can do the following - let's not miss it!
- How will I...worship fully?
- How will I...spend less?
- How will I...give more?
- How will I...love all?
Do:
1. Pray Psalm 30 this week every day.
2. Join us at the Artisan Market this Friday night from 6-9pm at the Chesterfield campus! https://thecrossing.church/eventoccurrence/1187

You turned my wailing into dancing;
you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent.
Lord my God, I will praise you forever.
Psalm 30:11-12 (NIV)
