The Christmas season has a way of becoming complicated—rushed schedules, endless lists, and noisy expectations. But at the heart of the story is something profoundly different: a God who came near in simplicity, in humility, and in love. This Advent, we’ll pause to rediscover the sacred in the middle of our everyday lives. Together, we’ll walk through the traditional themes of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love—ancient promises that meet our deepest longings today. Each week, we’ll light the candles of Advent and remember that the true light has come, guiding us out of darkness. This is an invitation to slow down, to breathe deep, and to welcome the presence of Jesus into our homes and hearts. In a season that often overwhelms, we’ll choose to center ourselves on what is simple and sacred: the gift of God with us.
