This upcoming Sunday (December 3) marks the beginning of Advent. Taken from the Latin Adventus, meaning "coming," Advent is a time when the Church both remembers and anticipates Christ's coming.
"Since the time of Bernard of Clairvaux, Christians have spoken of the three comings of Christ: in the flesh in Bethlehem, in our hearts daily, and in glory at the end of time."
In the tradition of keeping an Advent calendar, my wife, a couple of friends, and myself wrote some devotional thoughts to help you focus on Christ this season. To listen, rest, and be still. It's a free download, and our prayer is that God will meet you in a special way this Advent season.
Deo Patri sit gloria, et Filio qui a mortuis surrexit, ac Paraclito in saeculorum saecula
