Resources for the season
Advent invites us into a time of holy awareness, as we look toward the first appearance of Jesus and the profound hope he brings. This season calls us to quiet our souls, attuning ourselves to God’s steady, often surprising work within and around us. In a world that decks this season with noise, Advent reminds us to seek God in the stillness, opening our hearts for transformation.
We’ve gathered resources—books, playlists, and guides—to help you slow down and be present to Christ’s arrival.
