This four-session DVD study invites us to worship Christ more meaningfully this Christmas by giving relationally to family, friends, and those most in need. Join pastors Rick McKinley (Imago Dei Community) and Chris Seay (Ecclesia) as we learn how to restore the scandal of Christmas by substituting compassion for consumption.

Are you fed up with how consumerism has stolen the soul of Christmas? This year, take a stand! Join the growing groundswell of Christ-followers who are choosing to making Christmas what it should be-a joyous celebration of Jesus' birth, not a retail circus.In four compelling sessions, Advent Conspiracy invites individuals, families, groups, and entire churches to substitute compassion for consumerism by practicing four simple but powerful, countercultural concepts:Worship Fully-because Christmas begins and ends with Jesus!Spend Less-and free your resources for things that truly matter.Give More-of your presence: your hands, your words, your time, your heart.Love All-the poor, the forgotten, the marginalized, the sick, in ways that make a difference.Advent Conspiracy DVD session titles:Session 1: Worship FullySession 2: Spend LessSession 3: Give MoreSession 4: Love AllDesigned for use with Advent Conspiracy book and DVD Study Guide
