It's Christmastime again—and somehow life feels louder, faster, and crazier than ever. The shopping lists. The pressure. The hurry. The sense that this season we're supposed to savor just keeps flying by. Every December, we celebrate the most important birth in the history of Creation…yet so often we blink, and suddenly it's January. In this episode of the Impactus podcast, Dean sits down with pastor and best-selling author Rich Villodas to explore how Advent invites us to slow down, breathe, and re-center our lives on Jesus. Through the lens of his brand-new book, Waiting for Jesus: An Advent Invitation to Prayer and Renewal, Rich offers a refreshing path back to peace and purpose this busy holiday season. Together, Dean and Rich explore how the practices of Advent—waiting, contemplation, prayer, and peacemaking—can ground us in the story of Christ, rather than the chaos of our cultural consumerism. Whether you're walking through joy or grief this season, Advent reminds us that hope is not just an idea—it's a Person. Settle in for a meaningful, timely, and deeply encouraging Christmas conversation with Dean and Rich!
