The notorious rush of Christmas can sweep us up and tempt us to push past our natural limits. But there's a different way you can choose—a way of spaciousness and peace in God's work. This is the shelter of Advent in God's presence.

Artist and author Bette Dickinson shares insight from her book Making Room in Advent in this thirty-minute video, inviting all of your senses to behold the precursors to Christ's coming in Luke's Gospel. Through grounding imagery, visio divina, and Mary's example, Bette guides viewers to listen and see the potential for the Holy Spirit's movement during this busy time. Join her in a devotional experience to prepare yourself for the wonder and gift that is the arrival of Jesus.
