Calendars & Festive Joy

There's one thing that God's people of Israel were to do in response to His presence and grace: celebrate! The festivals of the Lord were occasions for joy, remembrance, and celebration. They were serious, yet not somber, and also shared with everyone who would want to participate. Jesus practiced feasting, connecting with people and celebrating God's goodness. God's people were marked with festive joy!

We start our series today by looking at calendar rhythms and an overview of festive joy seen in feasting and celebrating the grace of God.
