The Real Purpose of Advent
Please remember that the purpose of Advent is not to imagine ourselves to be living at the time immediately preceding Christ’s birth and so somehow pretend that we are waiting for him to be born.

The purpose of Advent is to expect and pray for the coming of the Lord.

Trying to get back into things
It's been forever since I posted anything here. Partly because I've been busy with a ton of other things, partly because my access to a computer isn't as regular as it used to be.
Hopefully that will change now. Things have settled down at work and at home to the point where I can actually do something besides read other people's posts.
