Wonder Sparked and Reborn
Wonder - rapt attention or astonishment at something awesomely mysterious or new to one’s experience.

Are you open to a reorientation to the divine in your life? Are you open to the mystery and majesty of God’s incarnation? Are you open to the embrace of God’s love, and a reminder of God’s transcendence? Are you open to allowing wonder to be sparked and reborn in your life?

We name these questions because so many of us feel stress, busyness, skepticism, worry, fear, isolation, and grief, which can block us from the wonder and majesty of Advent. This series encourages us to intentionally accept the incredible invitation by God to let imagination, awe, gratitude, hope, peace, joy and love be sparked and reborn in our lives through Christ’s birth.

We pray that through scripture, song, poetry, art, and creative means, we may once again be open to the joyous news of Christ’s incarnation. We hope you will join Christ who is leading us on this journey.
