067 | Us & Kids: Anticipation and Hope

Inspiration from this Episode

“This power of hope for something better, or bigger than us - that relieves pain or brings joy is crucial to our daily lives - no matter how old we are.”

“Kids show up with energy and desires to be near you for comfort, strength and reassurance and growth. They want to follow and model you. 

“Making an impact on your spouse that brings strength, courage and connections that build memories about this year so that it ends in joy and peace.”

 

067 | Us & Kids: Anticipation and Hope

 

Intro  

Our podcast today comes from my thinking about anticipation and the 3 wise men. The story of the wise men comes from the Christian story of the birth of Jesus. But, do not worry if you think this is going to be a come to Jesus moment. This podcast is about the anticipation, disappointment and joy that the wisemen experienced.  

In some ways, they had a year like us. You see, they started out with great anticipation for a great adventure - following a star into the unknown. Just as we started 2020 with anticipation, eagerness for the next year and the next decade. Sounds a bit familiar, doesn’t it?
