I can’t even begin to imagine the hundreds of years of silence that the Annunciation broke into, but it reminds me that Advent always has room for our anger (and every other non-cheery emotion our holiday world would try to bury).
This year I am participating in Tripp Fullers four-part Advent class that follows up on the very...equipping, shall I say?...course on Dietrich Bonhoeffer. I feel like wrestling with some of the same Advent questions as those living under the Third Reich did.

Fleming's essay, "Advent at Ground Zero," (from her Advent book), gets me everytime. 🔥
