First Sunday of Advent Reflection: Christ Is Coming

Traditional Latin Mass Sunday Reflections

As we begin a new liturgical year, this reflection on the First Sunday of Advent asks the urgent question: are we awake? Drawing from the Epistle of Romans and the Gospel of Luke, we explore what it truly means to prepare for Christ's coming—not just His birth in Bethlehem, but His arrival in our hearts today and His final coming in glory. Through the wisdom of Saints Paul, Bernard of Clairvaux, Augustine, and Gregory the Great, we're challenged to cast off the works of darkness, put on the armor of light, and clothe ourselves completely in Christ. This isn't just about getting ready for Christmas; it's about being ready to meet the King face to face. Perfect for families and listeners of all ages who want to enter Advent with purpose and spiritual vigilance.
