Pray through Advent with Lectio 365, our daily devotional app
This Advent, we will prepare to celebrate the coming of Christ through two incredible expressions of creativity. The first is the prolougue to John’s Gospel – potentially the greatest poetic introduction to Jesus as the Word; God with us. The second, is the Great O Anitphons – ancient songs that meditate on a name of Jesus and an aspect of his character traditionally sung in the approach to Christmas. Through these stunning works of creativity we will prepare our hearts to celebrate when Christ came to Bethlehem, to welcome his coming today and to call for his return once more.
