If you’re anything like me, the way the calendar falls out this year might have you feeling overwhelmed in multiple ways. Maybe your head is spinning from all the noise of holiday schedules and shopping, but your heart is full of all the ways God’s grace is on full display in this season. 

If you’re reading this the day it’s posted, it’s the last day of November, a Saturday uniquely wedged right between Black Friday and the first Sunday of Advent. 

It’s four days packed with transitions from gratitude to gift buying, from fall to winter, from a season of giving thanks for our gifts to a season of looking forward to the Greatest Gift.
