In today’s episode of God’s Playbook, Fr. Rico reflects on the First Sunday of Advent and its reminder that this season is all about hope and being present to the gift of today. He walks listeners through the readings—from Isaiah’s call to go up the mountain of the Lord to St. Paul’s invitation to “put on the armour of light”—and reminds us that Emmanuel, God-with-us, is here right now. As Advent begins, he encourages everyone to slow down, stay awake in faith, and make room for Christ through prayer, reconciliation, and intentional presence with others.
