Three Comings of Christ Prepare us for Advent

About this sermon

Friends, many years ago, in the context of a high school religion class, a very wise Benedictine nun gave me a template for understanding Advent that I’ve never forgotten. It is simply that Advent calls to mind three “comings” of Christ: the first in history, the second now, and the third at the end of time. Meditating upon each of these is a helpful preparation for the holy season upon which we are embarking. ———VIDEO LINKS——— Bishop Barron on The Spirituality of Advent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAWnDA5cWD8&t=17s Bishop Barron on The Advent Revolution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jz-l8rEIdEc Bishop Barron on What's Unique About Advent (Advent Reflections): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MoT-sUyvw8g What Role do the Saints Play in Advent?
