As many of you know, we are dealing with the tragic loss of my husband’s best friend, so I’m laying low on social media this week. But I know the world keeps spinning for everyone else, and Advent is almost here! So – here’s a repost of my announcement from last year’s inaugural “Active Advent” in collaboration with Truth in the Tinsel.
Hope you’ll join us! (IF it works out, I’m thinking of doing some quick Periscope video tutorials of the exercises as well, but we’ll see….)

I know we haven’t even had Thanksgiving yet! (It’s one of my favorite holidays!) But the start of the Christmas season, Advent, is less than a week away! And, boy, do I have something exciting to share…
Friends, if you haven’t seen the Advent book, Truth in the Tinsel, it’s a must-have! Sure, it’s meant to be done with small children, but I think anyone would enjoy it!
24 days of well-planned crafts, Scripture, discussion, and more. Such a beautiful, authentic way to tell (and retell) the Christmas story. Includes supply lists, alternate plans, links to printable ornaments. And… And… Wait for it…
Now there are daily exercises to coordinate with each day!
I’m so excited to be able to share a 2-page printable document full of exercises (including written instructions) that coordinates with Truth in the Tinsel ebook by Amanda White.
While the document itself isn’t all that “pretty” (just a basic, no-frills chart), I think you’re really going to like it. If you’re more of a visual person, you can find the video explanations on Facebook each morning. It’s sure to be entertaining!

You can just do the exercises on the day they are listed. Or, if you want to get a little crazy, you can repeat each of the days before (Twelve Days of Christmas-style!) Whew – by the time Day 24 comes around, there’s a chance the little ones will be so worn that you’ll get to sleep in (maybe just a bit more than usual!) on Christmas morning!
