It's here! It's here!

Advent is a Homecoming is here!

Friends! The project that I’ve been dreaming about, working on, and teasing you about is HERE! It’s available now at THIS LINK. (Or click the picture!)

It’s purchasable as a pay-what-you-want PDF. *ALL OF THE PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED TO THE SANCTUARY SUPPLY DEPOT IN MINNEAPOLIS*

If you want Advent is a Homecoming but donating is a barrier, please reach out. I’m happy to send you a free copy.

I *highly* recommend printing this out, but you can also view it on your phone or computer.

Lastly, before you go grab it (or after!), please share widely. There’s a shareable post on every social media platform at my account, I’m very hopeful that this is exactly the kind of spiritual intervention we all need right now, and that the donations can help my neighbors with the material interventions they need right now as the temperature drops for a cold, Minnesota winter.

Here’s the description of this resource:

"Advent is a homecoming; God makes home among us and calls us back home to ourselves and to each other. This has implications for how we understand homelessness, yes, but perhaps more importantly it impacts how we see ourselves and everyone we share space, time, and breath with."

If you're looking for something to guide you through this tumultuous advent season toward hope, peace, joy, and love, look no further. Advent is a Homecoming is part advent-devotional and part street-zine, blending essays, artwork, poetry, and more to reflect on the themes of Advent for our world today, with a special focus on the wisdom of people who have experienced marginalization and oppression, and homelesness in particular.

The project is divided into four weeks, with an essay, art, reflection questions, affirmations, and a prayer for each week around that week's theme (Hope & Faith, Peace, Joy, and Love.) There is an additional piece for Homeless Day of Remembrance, which takes place on December 21st. In total there are 50 pages of content.

Pay What You Want: there is a suggested donation of $12 and a minimum donation of $5. (See below if you need it cheaper.) Once you complete the transaction you can download as many times as you want, and the PDF is not protected. You can print it and share it as much as you like. My only ask is that you factor in your projected sharing into your donation; if you plan to use this in a large group space, there is no need to have everyone purchase their own copy, but please consider a larger donation--every penny of which is going to support unhoused people with life-saving needs in Minneapolis as Winter arrives.

NOTE: If for any reason you would like a copy of this but find that payment is an obstacle, please reach out to Kevin via his website and he will get you a free copy.

We really hope you enjoy this. Please share widely, and leave a review on Gumroad after you've finished it.
