Advent is a time to hope. Advent is a time to prepare. Advent is a time to be expectant.

We are waiting for the baby Jesus. But how do we push past the busy-ness, the shopping, the school exams and projects? How do we get that feeling of anticipation and excitement? How the heck do we really (and practically) get our hearts ready?

YouTube.

Yep, YouTube is where I'm turning this Advent season. Here are some great resources that I hope our youth families will share around the dinner (or breakfast or whatever time works) table! And if there's not a time you are all together, consistently, start an Advent group chat with your family and friends! Share theses links ... one a day for Advent week 3 and Christmas Eve!
