Send us a textWelcome to the final episode of What Matters Most for 2023! Fawn Ellerbrook sat down with Chris Rowton, Tabitha Caplinger, and a friend new to the pod, Kelsee Partney, to talk all things Christmas. We talked about the wonder and awe of the season and how we can take time to focus on Christ as we wrap up this year. There may also be a few rabbit trails about fruit cake and all our favorite Christmas things!Whether you find yourself joyful and excited for Christmas or maybe you feel sad or walking through loss, our goal for this next hour we have together is that you hear the incredible hope that is yours because Jesus came for you and me. So sit back, grab a cup of cocoa, and enjoy this holiday episode of What Matters Most. _______________________For Advent Resources, download our free app at Faithcommunity.co/app or click the link at FaithCommunity.co. 00:00 Welcome & introductions02:33 Chris' Ode to Fruitcake05:36 Our Favorite Christmas Movies12:55 Our Favorite Holiday Traditions20:44 Why do traditions matter to us?25:22 What is Advent?32:30 What was happening during the 400 years between the Old & New Testament?43:35 Emmanuel God with Us54:30 How we stay connected with God during Christmas and other busy seasons1:03:49 What to do when the holidays are hard1:09:30 What we're looking forward to this year1:14:10 A prayer for the holidaysWhat Matters Most is a podcast from Faith Community Church.
