Advent is more than a season on the Christian calendar—it is the heart of Christianity’s invitation to live a life of love that is both expectant and unfulfilled. This is the season that makes explicit what is implicit in Christianity: that our faith turns on hope for the impossible, a readiness for what is to come.
Through these videos, we invite you into a journey that moves beyond familiar stories and nostalgic traditions to uncover a radical promise—a theological revolution hidden in the folds of Advent. Together, we’ll explore sacred scripture, contemplative practices, and the words of courageous thinkers, discovering this season as an invitation to mystery. Advent calls us to wait without guarantees, to believe beyond what we see, and to hope for what seems impossible.
Advent has always been a countdown to Christmas—a time of calendars, chocolates, and cherished traditions. But it is also so much more.
Advent is expectancy, surprise, and possibility. It is a summons to embrace the not-yet-known, to risk faith in the midst of uncertainty, and to find meaning in the waiting itself.
These videos are here for you to engage in your own time, whether during Advent or at any season of life. May they invite you to explore the shadows, linger in longing, and be surprised by the light that arrives in the midst of waiting.
Welcome to Advent—a season of radical waiting.
