5.0 out of 5 stars Turning Consumerism Into Compassion Nov 3 2009
Format:Paperback
You must admit, it's a pretty interesting way to celebrate the birth of Jesus. God chose to enter the world through the poor, to be poor, and we mark this earth-shattering event by spending billions on stuff that we generally don't need.

The good people at Advent Conspiracy ask the question, 'Are you tired of how consumerism has stolen the soul of Christmas?' I am. I'm also tired of how it steals the soul of God's Church, and how it threatens to steal my own soul. Joining the Advent Conspiracy is a good way to fight back. In simple but piercing and powerful language this book looks at the need to Worship Fully, Spend Less, Give More, and Love All. One could be forgiven for thinking that perhaps this is not just about Christmas, but about the Gospel of Jesus itself. But, let's start with Christmas.

Starting with a brief history of how the Advent Conspiracy started, and excellent real-life examples of how others are living this out, this book will change your life if you let it.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Advent Changer Dec 28 2009
Format:Paperback
I found out about Advent Conspiracy from a friend and immediately went to their web page. I knew that I was going to participate in some way.

If you're checking this book out because of the stories you've seen on CNN or read about it online, the book is well worth the price. Because I had already been unknowingly following the principles of Worship Fully, Spend Less, Give More, Love All for years the book wasn't totally transformational for me, but I appreciated the reminders. It was a great way to start my Christmas season.

5.0 out of 5 stars reclaiming Christmas Oct 29 2009
Format:Paperback
"In our hearts we know that consumerism is not the Christian way to celebrate the birth of Christ" (p.30). This book puts to words what resonates in so many hearts. Some how the relentless busyness of the season does not line up with a baby in manger. The Advent Conspiracy book not only helps bring focus to what this season is really about but also challenges me/us with some practical ways to make a real difference in people's lives through this season. My family has been implementing many of these for a few years and it has made the season a lot more fun!
