In this Advent, we hear a set of 4 biblical stories that foreground the 4 elements of nature: fire, air, water, and earth. The creation itself appears to witness to and long for God’s arrival. We wait, with heaven and nature, for the joy that is coming to the whole world.The 4th Sunday of Advent is about the earth. In the first chapter of John’s gospel, every molecule of matter is imbued with divine purpose and presence–the earth itself awaits the fullness of Christ’s coming. Rev. Lewicki, preaching.
