By Father Perry D. Leiker, pastor
"We are so blessed, as believers in Jesus the Christ, as Christians, followers of the Lord, to have a message that is so transformative," Father Perry tells us for the 14th episode of our Advent podcast, for our celebration of Thursday of the Third Week of Advent. "So as we ready ourselves for this feast of Christmas, our homework is, Lord, come into my life; be born again to me, deeper. And I hope that the most important gift that you and I open up this Christmas Day will not be a material thing, but an amazing, spiritual reality of Christ born anew, born again into our lives."
