Grow
We imagine growing spiritually is difficult because we think God is distant and hidden. But God's hiddenness is an invitation to seek so that we can enjoy discovering. We can trust our instincts to point us toward a God who is not well-hidden because God wants to be discovered. Growing is as easy as looking.

In a world increasingly divided and hopeless, even something as simple as respectful disagreement seems impossible. But the prophets who taught Israel how to long for the birth of the Messiah made bold promises: weapons formed into gardening tools; wolves and sheep living in harmony; deserts blooming. Such promises seem impossible – like pure imaginative fiction. But God’s promises aren’t fiction. They’re a future God is bringing into existence. Jesus birth proves God is with us, that God is working. We can have purified imaginations, see the world as it will be, and begin to work for that world now. What does it mean to be a people of Advent?
