About this listen
In this inspiring sermon, Mother Paige of St. Peter's Church in Del Mar, California, welcomes us to the season of Advent and emphasizes the importance of 'waking up' in the Christian faith. Drawing from Apostle Paul's message and readings from Isaiah and Matthew, she delves into the true meaning of apocalyptic literature and challenges common misinterpretations. With a focus on personal and communal peace-making, Mother Paige encourages us to actively participate in spiritual activities, anticipate hope amidst life's challenges, and stay committed to being agents of mercy, grace, and love. This powerful message calls on us to see Advent as a time to celebrate Jesus in history, mystery, and majesty while working towards reconciliation and justice.
