Advent – What is it and Why is it Important?

We should not limit ourselves to thinking of the incarnation of Jesus’s birth to only one time a year, but we should allow ourselves to celebrate throughout the year, to rejoice in, and to meditate on the miracle that God the Son took on flesh and was born into the world He created.

Greetings and What They Convey

When reading the Bible, have you noticed that Jesus greeted only His disciples? Three times. And only after His resurrection. He greeted them saying, “Peace be with you.” (John 20:21) So, what makes Jesus’ greeting of peace so powerful and unique such as, “My peace I give to you.” Jesus’ greeting always included His desire to give His peace.
