The Season of Advent: A People who Walk in Darkness

During our Second Saturday Conversation December 14, 2024 we spoke about the liturgical season of Advent, the beginning of a new  church year. In particular how Advent is a season that acknowledges our non-knowing. We don’t know what’s coming.  We see through a glass darkly. The tradition insists that in our acknowledgement that we know only in part we also realize a depth dimension to our lives not completely of our own making. And in the depths a shimmer, a shine. Before the light of Christmas the dark of non-knowing. As always the attendees of Second Saturday Conversation add much to our discussion.

Our next Second Saturday Conversation is January 11, 2025. We will explore Jesus as an epiphany of darkness.

Have a safe holiday season. See you in the New Year.
