Oh y'all...what better way to celebrate Thanksgiving here in the United States than with our friend, Father Mike Schmitz. As we enter into the season of Advent this weekend, Father Mike walks us through how Advent came about, its purpose, and how an Advent rhythm can set us for the coming year. Man, this friend is such a gift and I'm so thankful for his encouragement to all of us.
