Why Advent Matters: Finding God in Grief, Reflection, and Hope with Pastor Jason Jackson

Send us Fan MailAdvent begins in a dark season, especially in the Western Hemisphere, and that’s no accident. In this conversation with Pastor Jason Jackson, we explore why Advent matters, especially in seasons marked by grief, disappointment, or exhaustion. We talk about the church calendar, the subversive invitation to slow down, and how this sacred season holds space for both lament and hope. Whether you’re new to Advent or longing to find God in the tension, this episode offers gentle wisdom, theological depth, and a deeply pastoral word for your soul.Learn more about Communion of the Saints Church in Colorado Springs: https://www.cosdowntown.org/https://www.simplywholehearted.com/wholeheartedcoachingcollectiveGet Your Enneagram Gift Guide and Advent Podcast Playlist https://www.simplywholehearted.com/enneagram-gift-guideSupport the showRESOURCES FOR YOU:Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wickshttps://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicksNot sure about your Enneagram Type?
