Gospel (895)
  1. What does Jesus’ identity as Son of God and son of Mary say to those who feel the burden of figuring out for themselves who they “really” are?
  2. The consequences of Christmas are severe, and they do not stop in the little town of Bethlehem.
  3. As we hear what God is doing, we begin to realize how true freedom and joy in this life are not about managing our reality but, like Joseph, about faithfully receiving what God is doing.
  4. Christ did not merely urge humanity to be kind. He embodied perfect kindness by giving his life for those who neither earned nor expected such a gift.
  5. Faint of heart or strong, Advent finds us all in a world that shakes our faith and drives us to wonder about the work and promises of this God who claims to love us.
  6. The Baptizer is a prophet who has more of the Word of God in his pointer finger than most preachers have in their whole body!
  7. Today, on the First Sunday of Advent, on the First Sunday of the Church Year, Jesus invites us to bring to Him our humble places.
