About this episode
Want to walk through Advent with Fr. Mike? Join us for daily video Advent reflections in the Ascension App: https://ascensionpress.com/pages/frmikeadvent Homily from the First Sunday of Advent. We are made to see the Lord face to face...but are we ready for that? Advent is a time to prepare to see the Lord face to face. We are preparing to have the ability to stand before the Lord. But we often find ourselves reluctant to be seen because we are afflicted and affected by shame. How do we move forward and allow the Lord to deal with our shame? Mass Readings from December 1, 2024: Jeremiah 33:14-16 Psalms 25:4-5, 8-9, 10, 14 1 Thessalonians 3:12—4:2 Luke 21:25-28, 34-36
