Warm sweaters, friends, family, Bearded Theologians, and reading books to preschoolers are a few of the things that bring us joy. But are those the things that bring lasting joy? That is the conversation today as we talk about the new sight Jesus can give us in this season of advent.

If you are just jumping in we are using Richard Rhor's book Preparing for Christmas to guide daily conversation. And you can connect with me at [email protected] or via social media @cmbishop on twitter and @cmbishop82 everywhere else.
