More: Advent, Chrismons, & Writing ~ 1st Week
Welcome to More and a celebration of the
Advent season.
The denomination of my formative Christian years didn’t
celebrate the church year. We had Easter and Christmas, but those two Sundays
were the only ones devoted to special events of the church: Sunrise Service and
Gift-Giving for the Poor. All the other Sundays were a ceaseless progression of
one sermon to the next.
My soul was unhappy. I didn’t know that I needed more,
and that part of that more was discovering the church year as a constant
reminder of God’s relationship with people.
Gradually, I encountered elements of the church year. Lent
was mentioned because my high school French class celebrated Mardi Gras. All
Hallow’s Eve was followed by All Hallow’s Day on an almanac calendar. Epiphany
and Pentecost were Christian words; while I knew them, I didn’t understand
their importance.
Advent is upon us, and I’ve learned to celebrate More. Join me as I share a bit of More with you as well as relate each Advent with More on Writing.
