This Good Word With Steve Wiens
Religion & Spirituality:Spirituality
The season of Advent marks the beginning of the church calendar, and it's a season of naming our deepest longings, those places in our lives where everything feels shrouded in darkness and hopelessness. It's a season to ask for light to come into those places, for Christ to come into those places. It's a season to practice waiting for the impossible to become possible.
My conversation is with Ruth Haley Barton, a dear friend and the Director of the Transforming Center in Chicago, Illinois.
