Living into the Tension of Advent: Dr. J. Derek McNeil and Kate Davis

“How shall we live into this Advent season at such a time as
this?”


 


Each year, the season of Advent invites us to lean into the story
of God, to the tension and expectation that surrounds the birth
of Jesus. This year, however, amidst a global pandemic and
heightened racial tension, anticipation has become akin to a
feeling of dread rather than a thing to look forward to with hope
and excitement. How then, Rachael asks, are we to live into the
season of Advent in this year? As she begins a series of
conversations around this very question, today you’ll hear
Rachael talk with Dr. J. Derek McNeil, President and Provost of
The Seattle School, and Kate Davis, Director of Resilient Leaders
Project, about this unique season of expectation and what it
means for us to be truly embodied and co-regulated.
