Jesus, a radical changemaker, comes to us anew.

He demonstrated compassion and empowered others toward more flourishing.  As followers of Jesus, we, too, are invited to seek out the flourishing of others. 

This season of Advent is an opportunity for us to reflect on why Jesus came and what that means for us today.  A valuable spiritual practice for changemakers is to share the stories and wisdom of Jesus in their own words. Each day of Advent you will be invited to engage in a scripture passage and reflection by a current-day changemaker.  A prompt is provided for your response, either in this space or in your own journal. 

Come.  Spend time with the ultimate compassion-driven changemaker.
