As Jordyn prepares to welcome her baby, Rachael leads us through what Advent prepares us for, why our desires make us restless, and how true hope redirects our longing toward Christ. Drawing from the Catechism, Scripture, the promises of Jesus, and the Beatitudes, Rachael breaks hope into three parts—desire, trust, and grace—and reminds us that hope is not something we create on our own but something God strengthens within us.
