Advent Conspiracy

This morning we were sitting in church and our Pastor showed a great video about this upcoming holiday season.  Let me first say- as he did- we're not against buying things for each other. We're NOT saying to not buy your children any presents, nor are we saying the idea of buying Christmas presents is evil. 
What we are saying, what we do feel, is that Christmas has gotten so blown out of proportion it's ridiculous.  This video is something that really hit home for the two of us.  Check it out and pray how the Lord would lead you and your family:


Again, we're still going to buy our children gifts, BUT, we are also going to cut it back and have our kids do something worthwhile for others. Like Pastor Tom said, we're going to store our treasures in heaven, not on the things of this earth.
