The word advent means waiting—it’s a four-week season when we practice waiting on the presence of God to show up, symbolized in the celebration of the birth of Jesus on Christmas Day. In 2022 Advent begins on Sunday, Nov 27, and culminates on Christmas Eve. We’ll publish meditations Monday–Saturday each week of the Advent season, ending on Friday, Dec 23.
Our 2022 Advent podcast includes guided prayer and meditation, as well as stories of how animals wait and survive in the dark and learn from them what it means to wait on God—and on hope—when things seem hidden from us. Part of the podcast includes readings from the book All Creation Waits by author Gayle Boss and illustrated by David Klein.
We hope you’ll join us.
