Church of the Open Door

Published on 12/08/2019

Kati Beasley brings us to the second Sunday of Advent with a meditation on the Innkeeper of Luke 2:7. Fredrick Buechner’s The Magnificent Defeat takes us a bit deeper into the thoughts of this character in the Christmas narrative: explaining that he’d been so harried by all the details of life, “lost in the unenchanted forest of a million trees,” a million tasks to be accomplished, the Innkeeper laments, “When the baby came, I was not around, and I saw none of it... When he came, I missed him.” Missi McKown will join Kati to offer a person reflection, and Kati will create some space for us to notice God in the unexpected places of “the unenchanted forest of a million trees, a million things to be done.”Teaching Pastor: Kati Beasley, Formational Life Associate Pastor | Advent 2019 | www.thedoor.org
