Advent is a four-week season in the Church calendar dedicated to anticipating the arrival, or “advent,” of Jesus of Nazareth, the long-awaited savior and King. Christians from many backgrounds celebrate this time with reflections on hope, peace, love, and joy. And while their practices may look different, all focus on the hope-filled arrival of Jesus. But what is it about the arrival of Jesus that gives us hope? For many Christians, the hope found in the arrival of Jesus is the promise that in Jesus’ kingdom, there will be justice – making all things new, where the sinful state of this world will be made right again.
Our multiethnic team of Christian antiracism educators and friends sit down to talk about the themes of Advent through the lens of justice in this holiday episode.
