As some of my more committed readers will know this is the time of year I get a bit obsessed with Advent. I’m a sucker for the whole pondering the wonder of the Author of creation coming to earth as a small tiny baby. Having spent all day on Saturday holding one of these tiny babies I’m even more stunned by the whole thing. Anyway. This Saturday I shall be helping some ladies of Wimbledon ponder Advent, the coming of Jesus and all that was enabled through him. There are a few traditional Advent hymns, O Come O Come Emmanuel is normally the more dirgey of the lot but here it gets a beautiful reworking by Surfjan Stevens. Sit back and enjoy some Advent bliss.
