G2 and Christmas

When i think about the great commission and the great commandment along side of the Christmas holiday I get excited. When we think about the purpose behind the coming of Christ it becomes clear that loving God, Neighbor and world can be played out with in this season.

Jesus example: when we see that Jesus took on human form and came in a humble manner and we look at how He describes His relationship with God the Father it becomes a wonderful example of how we are to live. When we see that He came on mission to save His people from there sins, He loved his neighbor, we should be on mission. When we look at how He gave His life sacrificially it is amazing to think that we should live the same way. Jesus was not just a baby but the messiah, the coming one who would change the world.

When Christmas loses the point of Jesus we have lost our way. I am not asking that we change the world, but what if we changed the Christians in the world? What would it look like to put our G2 lifestyle in to practice during Christmas when we can follow the example of the one we worship and celebrate. To truly remember that Christmas began with worship.
