Sensing Advent Series
Advent is a time of awaiting the arrival. How can we be fully participating in Advent? We can use all of our senses: Seeing, Hearing, Touching, Smelling. What do we see, hear, touch, and smell when experiencing Advent?

December 2nd: Hear – Hanging of the Greens 
Scripture: Matthew 1:18-23; Luke 1:26-38
What did those in the first Advent hear? What were they told as all this began. What do we hear today? Are we taking time to listen during Advent?

December 9th: Touch - Children’s Christmas Program 
Scripture: Luke 1:39-45
Here we see that Elizabeth and John the Baptist were both touched by Jesus when Mary walked into their home. How has Jesus touched our lives. Are we taking the time to notice when Jesus is reaching out?

December 16th: Smell – Christmas Cantata 
Scripture: Luke 2:1-7
What smells do we associate with Christmas? Jesus was born in close quarters with animals. I’m sure most of the smells we smelled were not experienced on that first Christmas. 

December 23rd:See- Carols and Hymns 
Scripture: Matthew 2:7-12; Luke 2:8-20
There were many things to see this first Christmas season. They traveled to Bethlehem. The wise men came to visit after Jesus was born. The shepherds. Are we taking time to see this Advent season?
