Show Notes:
A Paradigm for Traditions
Traditions are like a magnet that brings the family back together.
Traditions don’t have to be “big”.
One of the best gifts we can give the important people in our lives is the knowledge that they are a priority in our lives.
Traditions create opportunity for connection
Many of the great traditions of the Church create opportunities for our spiritual growth.
They help us grow, gather, and have fun.
Traditions create rhythms
They create memories for the journey.
People remember how you use the time you have with those you value in your life.
Memories help us journey well, and traditions help us create memories.
Traditions help us create communities
Traditions transfer from one generation to the next.
Traditions from Jeff and Brent
Jeff
Giving to homeless shelters
What it communicates:
Someone in a less fortunate situation deserves the same thing we get– not the leftovers.
Brent
Celebrating Advent
What it communicates:
We not only look back to the birth of Jesus we also look forward to the coming of Christ again.
Anticipating the coming of Jesus helps us filter our anticipating of other things.
It should inform our outlook as we anticipate everything else in our lives.
