What is advent? I've never really known or participated before, so this year it has been new to me. Each Monday a 3pm in the Chapel we have a short little "service." I looked up what the definition of advent was and this is what I found: Advent serves a reminder both of the original waiting that was done by the Hebrews for the birth of their Messiah as well as the waiting of Christians for the second coming of Christ.
Today we looked at peace. Last week hope. And the next two weeks are joy and love. This video was played and it really hit me hard.
Kind of makes you want to forget all about gift giving all together huh? Well it did for me. I want to redefine Christmas.
