It's almost Christmas and we're coming to you with the third and fourth themes of Advent: Love and Joy.
In this episode, Jed and I shared what we have learned about living lives of love and joy here in Ukraine. We don't claim to have all the answers and are definitely in progress, but maybe a few of our thoughts will encourage you today. Merry Christmas, Friends! We are thankful to have you along on the journey.

Advent Thoughts: Hope & Peace

Christmas is just around the corner, but there's more to the Christmas season than shopping lists, Christmas movie marathons, and curating the best holiday playlist (although I'm definitely in favor of all those things!). Advent, the four weeks before Christmas, is a wonderful time to prepare our hearts as we anticipate the celebration of Jesus' birth and wait expectantly for Him to come again.
We really love Advent around the Homestead and wanted to share a few thoughts with you about the first two themes of Advent: hope and peace. So, sit on down, relax with your cup o' nog, and enjoy!
