Advent began this last Sunday. If you are not familiar with Advent, you should become familiar with it. It is a blessed time of year, beginning the first Sunday after Thanksgiving and ending Christmas Day. It is a season that leads us to remember Jesus’ first coming (his Advent) and to anticipate his second coming. For me it is a time that makes Christmas truly meaningful because it helps me focus on the “why” of Christmas. I approach the weeks of Advent as an adventure in faith.
