Do you ever feel like Advent slipped by without fully engaging your heart? You’re not alone—and it’s not too late to refocus! In this episode, Dr. Sri explores the rich tradition of praying the O Antiphons, a beautiful part of the Church’s evening prayer and Liturgy that dates back to the early Church.
