Synopsis

The Two Advents of Jesus Christmas celebrates the "first coming" of Jesus, in the incarnation of the Son of God. But the Advent Season also focusses upon the second coming of Jesus at the end of time. Advent is a time when we recognise that we live between the two comings of Jesus Christ. Towards the end of Matthew's Gospel, Jesus uses the story of Noah to teach us that the ordinary things go on as we live our Christian lives, rejoicing in what we were given at the first coming of Jesus at Christmas, yet watchful and awake as we wait for the second coming of Jesus. Presented by world-renowned biblical scholar Rev. Professor Francis J. Moloney SDB AM, Audio Divina, is a Lectio-Divina styled reflection on the gospel for the 1st Sunday of Advent, Year A. Gospel Reading: Matthew 24:37-44 This week’s readers are Romina and Tristan Narrated by Michael Gartland Produced by Br Jeff Miller SDB and Ashley Trethowan For more information visit: www.salesians.org.au/info/audiodivina
