Join us as Tracy shares how Jesus meets us in Advent with an invitation to slow down and pay attention. Joy does not arrive all at once. It forms quietly as faith grows and as we make room for God’s work in everyday Christian life. This teaching reflects on joy as something God shapes within us while we live between promise and fulfillment. Tracy points us to Jesus, who trusted the Father while walking a costly road, and to Mary, whose joy flowed from revelation and surrender as she said yes to God’s work unfolding in her life.
Throughout this teaching, we’re invited to slow down during Advent and notice what is happening beneath the surface. As we grow in honest awareness of the soul, openness to the Holy Spirit, and a willingness to release what crowds out space for God, joy begins to take shape. It grows as we recognize God’s presence, trust His promises, and stay open to the life He is forming within us.
