11. What is Advent? | A Christmas study of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love

What is Advent anyway—and why does it matter for us as busy Christian moms?

In this solo episode, we slow down and walk through the true meaning of Advent, the four weeks leading up to Christmas that focus on Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. Instead of rushing through the season, this episode invites you to study Scripture, reflect deeply, and grow spiritually together.

This is not a passive listen — you’ll definitely want your Bible, paper, and pen ready as we dig into God’s Word and allow Him to speak into our hearts during the Christmas season.

Whether Advent is brand new to you or something you’ve heard about but never truly studied, this episode is a gentle, grounding way to refocus your heart on Jesus.
