Embrace the Joy of Advent

A peaceful Advent nook with glowing candles and a wreath

Advent offers a meaningful opportunity to pause and reflect during the busy holiday season. Taking time for rest during this period can restore your spirit and deepen your appreciation for the true significance of the season.

For this reason, I have decided to take a break from writing for a few weeks. I want to create space for inspiration to find me, whether I'm watching the leaves fall or observing the wind blow. I may even take the time to tend to my plants, turning them to catch the sunlight.

In the meantime, I invite you to visit the Eat the Scroll Advent page. You can find Advent videos and reflections for 2019, focusing on the theme "Jesus is Our Happiness." These current gospel readings align with my reflections recorded in 2019. I look forward to returning to our blog page in 2026.

Wishing you a happy Advent, a Merry Christmas, and a joyful Kwanzaa!

Sincerely,

Prof. Evangel Michael Howard, MACS
