Every year, I present an advent calendar-blog of sorts. I called it “Thirty Days of Jesus”. I offer a scrpture, an accompanying picture, and some resources to click on furhter if the reader desires.
The series lasts a bit more than 30 days since there is an introduction and a few verses as a postlude. It will begin tomorrow (Sunday Nov 26) and go through New Year’s Eve.
I do it because it helps give me a bit of a break from writing a new blog and recording a new podcast every day, yet still present solid theological content to people who read or listen here, a major goal of mine. It also helps me focus on the reason for the season.
If something big comes up I’ll write about it. But if not, then I won’t.
When I return Monday to school, I’ve got 18 1/2 school days until Christmas Break. It is a fun time of year with the kids. A fun time of year all around!
I changed my outside decorations the morning after Thanksgiving to a Christmas theme.

I hope you all have a wonderful day!
