Advent Hope
“Prepare the way of the Lord,” John the Baptist comes to say. If Advent is about anything, it is about hope, hope that the God’s way is better than ours.
The Kingdom of God
The way of Jesus has a destination. All our prayer, all our action for justice is directional: it points us to the reign of God.
