Show Notes

Over the last four weeks, Chelsea, Claire, and Dana have offered weekly reflections on the themes of Advent: Hope, Love, Joy, and Peace. These themes connect to the traditional Scripture readings that are presented throughout the Advent season and remain consistent from year to year. 

Today, we celebrate the coming of Christ - God-With-Us, Emmanuel - on Christmas Day. Listen as Chelsea reflects on the Christmas story.
