I want to hear from you! Text me here.

 "In this combined episode, we light the first two candles of Advent: Hope and Peace, exploring the rich history and deep spiritual significance of this cherished season. From its early development outside Rome in Spain and Gaul, Advent began as a liturgical period of preparation for the feast of the Epiphany. By the seventh century, it evolved into a time of waiting and expectancy for Christ's return in glory.

We'll reflect on hope (yakhal), the confident expectation of God's promises, using scriptures like Romans 8:24-25 and Isaiah 9:2-7. We’ll also delve into shalom, the profound peace Christ brings, looking at passages like John 14:27 and Isaiah 26:3. Learn how these timeless themes, rooted in Advent’s history, can bring light to your heart and home this season.

Discover how the Advent wreath, a tradition with origins in pre-Christian rituals, became a Christian symbol of eternity and the light of Christ. Together, we’ll uncover ways to cultivate hope and peace amid the busyness of life, grounding our hearts in the anticipation of Christ’s presence."

This combined episode weaves the historical and spiritual elements of Advent with practical applications for life, helping listeners connect deeply with the themes of hope and peace.
