AMDG.  Advent is a time of active waiting, preparation, and reflection.  In this episode, guests Katie Bogner and Shari Van Vranken share their educational and artistic perspectives on Advent drawn from their professional backgrounds and their recent authorial collaboration in All About Advent and Christmas: Sharing the Seasons of Hope and Wonder with Children.  The group discusses how experiences across public, parochial, and homeschool settings; how saints and symbolism factor into Advent; and the value of stepping back from daily routines into yearly traditions.
