Advent Unhurried
Christmas is chronically chaotic, you’re invited to slow down.
It's no secret that the holiday season arrives overscheduled and oversentimental, pressuring us toward a manufactured cheer long before we're ready for it. Advent has always resisted that pace--a season built for waiting, not rushing, for sitting with longing before we arrive at joy.
If you feel caught between sorrow and joy, doubt and faith, Advent Unhurried gives you permission: carrying more questions than certainty is still a faithful way to wait. With warmth and honesty, Boyett explores the witness of Mary, who models what it means to say yes to love even when faith is hard to come by.
Encompassing the full four weeks of Advent--hope, peace, joy, and love--these tender, unhurried reflections invite individuals, small groups, and gift-givers alike into a more contemplative path toward Christmas.
