What Does it Mean to Be Shaken?

As we enter the season of Advent, Gena St. David reflects on what is helpful for us to keep in mind and remember when things are being shaken loose inside us and how we can help one another hold onto hope [Luke 21:25-36].

Reflection

• What is being shaken loose inside you this advent season?
• How are you experiencing Christ in the presence of loved ones?
• After the shaking process, what are you hoping will remain?

Practice

• Reflect on your experience of being shaken.  What is being shaken loose inside you? What is being removed because it no longer serves us? What do we imagine will remain which cannot be shaken?
