THE CHRISTIAN LIFE IN THE MODERN WORLD


DYNAMIC ADVENT

What is Advent?

 

The season of Advent is a time of expectation, when we prepare our home and our hearts to celebrate the birth of Jesus on Christmas Day. The word Advent is derived from the Latin word adventus, which means “coming”.

 

Advent is a season of hope, a time to nurture peace and experience joy in anticipation for the love that is made incarnate with the birth of Jesus.

TRUE MEANING OF ADVENT

Ultimate Guide to Advent

 

This Ultimate Guide to Advent begins with an important question: What is the purpose of Advent?

 

Before we begin preparing for the season, it is important to know what the meaning of Advent is. In this thought-provoking video, Fr. Mike Schmitz dives deep into the true purpose of Advent, challenging us to rethink how we prepare for Christmas.

 

Fr. Mike suggests it’s not about following rules but about what truly prepares your heart for the celebration of Christ's birth.
