As we count down the days to Christmas, Advent invites us to reflect on the wondrous events surrounding the birth of Christ.
Not only did Jesus give the gift of himself – in the manger, as a teacher and healer, and on the cross – he continues to enrich us.
As we begin our individual and unique processes of reflection over 2020, grace and peace would perhaps be the last descriptive words to show up in our minds rather than the first.
The journey of Advent is one that can help us to reorient our hearts to significant truths that we know and have experienced but sometimes grow slightly amnesic to.
Most of us just want 2021 to be different from 2020. Dare we hope the Advent season can be the precursor to that change?
Every year, Christians around the world gather together to celebrate the arrival of the King who came as a pauper, the God who became a man, the light of the world who dispels the darkness.
