Year C, The First Sunday in Advent

Send us a text

Join Fr. Aaron & Marissa Burt for this week's episode, in which they consider the readings for Advent 1, Year C in the Lectionary cycle: Zechariah 14:1-9; Psalm 50; 1 Thessalonians 3:6-13; Luke 21:25-33.

They discuss the themes of the season of Advent, the mutual affection & radical dependence on the Holy Spirit among the early believers, & what it means to look for "our redemption drawing near."

Our outro music is an original song by our friend Dcn. Jeremiah Webster, a poet and professor whose giftedness is rivaled by his humbleness. You can find his published works, including After So Many Fires, with a quick Google.
