Untangled Advent with Megan Nilsen, Finding Hope in a Weary World

Dec 3, 2025

In this Advent conversation, writer and spiritual director Megan Nilsen helps us slow down, breathe deeply, and step into a deason that's often more chaotic than contemplative. Instead of chasing a perfect Advent, Megan invites us to an uncluttered posture - one that welcomes God in our limitations, our longings, and our everyday routines. 

 

Together, we explore: 

• How to release the pressure of a "picture perfect" Advent
• What Scripture reveals about waiting, hope, and holy anticipation
• Why formation begins with honesty, not performance
• Rhythms that ground our emotions and quiet our hurried minds
• How to make space for God in the middle of real life, not ideal life

If you're craving a season that feels more like rest than striving, presence over productivity, and sacred attentiveness instead of overwhelm, this episode will gently guide you back to the heart of Advent.
