Advent does not only entail getting ready for Christmas. The season of
Advent is an invitation to recall God’s love for his people in the past, present, and future. Advent is a time for us to remember the story of salvation: how God has been working to bring fallen humanity back to Him. We also remember the advent, or arrival, of Jesus, whose coming we celebrate on Christmas. We remember why He came: to restore our relationship with the Father through His Paschal Mystery. Lastly, we look forward to his future advent, the time of His second coming. This study draws from the SYMBOLON series to deliver beautiful and insightful teaching on each of these Advent themes, so you may grow deeper in your faith as you journey towards the celebration of Christmas.
