Advent Conspiracy
I've been wanting to blog about this for a while and I think now might be the right time. Have you noticed that the Christmas sales and products have been out since before Halloween? Well, a couple of guys named Rick McKinley, Chris Seay, and Clint Kemp launched Advent Conspiracy at their churches this past Christmas. Advent Conspiracy is an international movement restoring the scandal of Christmas by worshipping Jesus through compassion, not consumption. This past year these three friends have led the way in challenging church leaders around the country, including Chris Seay sharing on consumerism at "Q", a leadership event. As we move into November and the overwhelming marketing that will hit us, consider how this idea will shape your giving and consumption this Christmas season. www.adventconspiracy.org

Thanks for putting this front and center. As crazy at is sounds, just yesterday I felt a twinge of stress serge through me as I realized "i have not even thought about what I am going to GET Beth this year".
What a messed up perspective.
The "Q"....It's part of the Fermi Project correct?
Yes, its the Fermi projects yearly meeting. From what I understand at least.
