Advent: Keeping Watch for The Light

by Erika M

An honest Advent journey for anyone struggling this season. Hope, peace, joy, love——but not as cheerful demands. Instead, we'll explore them as honest doorways into the tension between God's promises and our lived reality. We'll face the darkness courageously, acknowledge the hard emotions, and practice presence with what is—while looking toward transformation and the coming of Jesus. wholeheartssociety.substack.com
