As worship leaders and servers in the church, we're entering what can be both the most beautiful and most demanding time of the year.
You know those moments - you're juggling Christmas production rehearsals, planning special services, managing volunteer schedules, and somehow trying to keep your own spirit connected to the true meaning of this sacred season?
If you're feeling overwhelmed, you're not alone. Let’s take wisdom from some remarkable teachers - the Christian mystics - who knew deeply about finding God's presence in both the quiet and the chaos. They have something profound to teach us about staying spiritually alive and nourished during this busy season.
