Welcome to the Re-Collect Podcast, where we take a few moments to reflect on the Collect of the day to take our Sunday prayers into our weeks. Our collect this week is from the third Sunday in Advent.

O Lord Jesus Christ, you sent your messengers the prophets to preach repentance and prepare the way for our salvation: Grant that the ministers and stewards of your mysteries may likewise make ready your way, by turning the hearts of the disobedient toward the wisdom of the just, that at your second coming to judge the word, we may be found a people acceptable in your sight; for with the Father and the Holy Spirit you live and reign one God, now and for ever. Amen.
