Advent is a mystery, a deep and wonderful mystery of the Creator’s love for everything that is. During Advent we look forward to Christmas. But Advent brings into sharper focus, for a few weeks, the Christmas mystery we live with all the time, day by day. The mystery is, that in our midst and up ahead is the mother of all victories, our triumph over all darkness, pain, unhappiness, and suffering.
These reflections were written to spark some new insights, inject some new life into the old, traditional language and ideas of this holy season. The Advent season is a holy time, days to cultivate hope and look forward to the surprising joy of Christmas. As we navigate through the season, momentum builds and the joy and wonder grow.

Mitch and Kathy Finley, a married couple, wrote their first book, Christian Families in the Real World: Reflections on a Spirituality for the Domestic Church, in 1984. It first brought to Catholic literature the insight that families constitute the smallest cell of the Church. The book earned the couple the Thomas More Medal for its “distinguished contribution” to Catholic literature. A revised edition is still in print. Mitch has written thirty-two books on theological topics, including 101 Ways to Happiness for Liguori Publications in 2005. Kathy, a sought-after counselor, is a spiritual director and the author of nine books on topics related to everyday spirituality. The two married in 1974.
