FMWT-118 Welcome to Secular Advent

n this podcast, Tony discusses Secular Advent. For those of you who are not familiar with the holiday season, it began several years ago and has grown into the biggest secular holiday of the year. But, it’s not OUR Advent!

Scripture: And do this because you know the time; it is the hour now for you to awake from sleep. For our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed;the night is advanced, the day is at hand. Let us then throw off the works of darkness [and] put on the armor of light.  Romans 13:11-12

Quotes: The worst moment for the atheist is when he is really thankful, and has nobody to thank.–Dante Gabriel Rossetti

Reflection: What has happened to the real meaning of the Advent season?  Have you found yourself getting swept away in the commercialism?  What can we do to keep the real meaning of the season alive?
