Advancing Ikmigl Advent During the rush of getting ready for Christmas, do you ever wish Christmas came some other time -it’s too busy in December! When is a good time for Christmas? Put another way, when are we prepared for Christmas?

One way to be prepared is to be open to new understanding based on new teaching and revelation of old truth. This was the job of John the Baptist. He was, as the angel told his father, Zechariah, “to make ready a people prepared for the Lord”. (Luke 1:17) He was sent to remind the people that a messiah was coming, and he readied them to receive new truth in the context of old hopes, dreams, and prayers. In this season of Advent, the four Sundays before Christmas, we celebrate an old truth, the coming of Christ. As we light a new candle on the traditional Advent wreath each week, we are reminded anew to prepare for the arrival of something momentous. Reflecting on an event that happened so long ago can reveal to us a new understanding of how to live our lives today. Prepare for Christmas in advance this Advent: attend your house of worship weekly and learn something new.
