An Advent 🧵 1/6 We often go through life so caught up with our own affairs that we miss the important signs of Christ’s kingdom that are all around us. Advent invites us to move away from that way of being. It’s a time to start paying attention again, to notice what is going on around us.

Weird how time works isn’t it? In some US states a pregnant 11 year-old isn’t allowed an abortion because they need to deal with the “adult” consequences of getting pregnant, but 35 year-old neo-Nazis in the govt group chat are “boys” doing “things young boys do”

Never once did Jesus scan the room for the best example of holy living and send that person out to tell others about him.
He always sent stumblers and sinners.
I find that comforting.
