“Let’s be honest: everything isn’t okay. You look around at the world, at the news, or even just inside your own heart, and it’s clear things aren’t how they’re supposed to be. We live in the “in-between”—a space defined by unmet longing and constant struggle.
Advent is the story of a people living with a desperate hope. We celebrate that Jesus has come, fixing what was broken, but we also acknowledge that his kingdom hasn’t fully arrived. We are Almost home, but we are Not Yet there.
Advent teaches us how to live faithfully, patiently, and joyfully in the messy middle—finding genuine hope and courage because we know that the promised light is already on its way.”
