TAKE TIME WITH TIM KING
"Tis the season to be jolly" says the song, but many in the counseling fields
will tell you that the holiday season oftentimes is anything 'but' jolly. While
December is the time that churches tend to talk more about the birth of Christ
and those both young and old are often focusing on picking out (or receiving)
just the right gift, many of us also tend to focus on reasons why we are NOT
jolly. These reasons range from financial angst and the bills that inevitably
increase this time of year to focusing on the losses we have endured in the past
year versus the blessings we have with us always. Perhaps it is this time of
year, more than any other, when we need to be at our most disciplined in
thinking about the joy of living in the full presence of God. When we look
outside of ourselves to find love, peace, joy, acceptance or approval, then we
are ignoring the greatest gift of all - the one that dwells within. This season,
focus on the gift of Presence. Find peace and rest within and be a calming force
to the world around you.

NEW WEBSITE TO MAKE
DEBUT SOON
January 1st will roll out new Presence.tv
Big changes are on the way at Presence.tv as we have been working for months
on our own version of "Extreme Makeover." These changes will be revealed with
the New Year January 1. Start your day with audio download messages from Tim
King who will help lead us into the daily practice of Presence. The new site
will also be divided into the four primary categories of our online
Transformations study program as it focuses upon the areas of Covenantal,
Personal, Organizational and Societal transformation. Be sure to check in and
register with us January 1 and gain valuable insight into how to translate
theology into daily living.

MAKE A YEAR-END
DONATION
Help us start 2005 in a strong position
The board of Presence is asking everyone who is able to consider a special
year-end donation to assist the work of Presence. Our plans for 2005 are very
aggressive and leave a significant monthly financial shortfall that we are in
need of covering. Please consider how you might help with either a one-time gift
or in joining us as a monthly "Partner in His Presence." The opportunities are
great for advancing the truth of the fulfilled view, but the ability to
capitalize on them is a constant struggle. Please consider walking with us as a
financial supporter.
