In this homily on the First Sunday of Advent, The Rev. Dr. James E. Taylor, Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, tells us that the word Advent is derived from the Latin word, "adventure." To submit yourself to the possibility of the reign of God is an adventure. It requires surrender. It is the willingness to walk where we have never walked before, exposing ourselves to the truth and the manifestation of God. My prayer for you during this Advent Season is:  O come, O Come, Emmanuel.
