BONUS | You Really Need to Slow Down, and Here’s Why
Before we get much further in our Advent series, we encourage you to slow down and live with more intention. The holiday season’s tendency to be all “hustle-and-bustle” can be an insidious distraction from God’s presence in our lives. God commands your awareness of him, observation of his handiwork, and participation in his Kingdom work. In this episode, Allison explains the necessity of solitude with God and provides tips on seeking God’s presence daily. We all do this imperfectly, so it’s not about striving for perfection! It’s about looking for God with an honest heart and open mind.
