Sometimes we lose hope, wondering, does He really want to come and be with us in our sickness, addiction, our family brokenness, our difficulty, our struggles, or anxieties? Advent is a time that God speaks a definitive word into our exiles, “Yes, I do” — He comes and desires to be with us.
This episode is the first part of the series on Emmanuel: An Advent Devotional which talks about what Advent is all about.

If you want to follow along with our current advent series, you can get your copy of Emmanuel: An Advent Devotional by Fr. Angelus Montgomery, CFR, and Sr. Karolyn Nunes, FSGM.
