120. Prepare Your Heart: How to Embrace Advent with Intention

Hello, beautiful!
If you’ve been longing for a quieter, more meaningful way to enter the Christmas season—or you’ve wondered how to prepare your heart during Advent—this episode is for you.

I’m sharing a personal God moment that led to a brand-new tradition for us here on the podcast—one that begins with the song Even So Come and gently guides us into hope, peace, and preparation.

Together, we’ll explore how God uses traditions, stillness, and expectation to draw us closer to Him during this sacred season.

Inspired by Romans 15:13, we’ll talk about how to shift from holiday overwhelm to heart-centered anticipation and how simple moments with God can transform how we experience this time of year.

In today’s episode, you’ll discover how preparing your heart can become a grounding rhythm that brings deeper joy, clarity, and peace as we await the arrival of Jesus.

You’ll Learn:
👣  Why Advent invites us into a slower, more intentional pace
👣 How traditions shape our hearts and anchor our faith
👣  Why preparing your heart opens the door to true Christmas joy

✨ Plus, you’ll hear heartfelt reflections, cozy encouragement, and a powerful Advent prayer to help you enter this season with hope and purpose.
