Session One: (Thursday the 1st) |
Longing for God |
A theme in Advent is longing for the divine interruption in our lives. We look at this motif of spiritual longing in Psalm 42. |
|
Session Two: (Thursday the 8th) |
Judgement, Mercy and Love |
Advent is a season where we consider God’s judgement in Christ. Judgement is a complex word in the Christian tradition, and we consider some of its aspects by looking at John 8 1-19. |
|
Session Three: (Thursday the 15th) |
Waiting for the Beloved |
We will look at ideas of waiting, expectation and desire in The Song of Solomon 3:1-5 and 5:1-8. |
|
Session Four: (Thursday the 22nd) |
The Birth of God |
Advent is the journey towards the miracle of God’s birth among us and within us. We look at this through Luke’s account of the Annunciation 1:26-38. |
