Welcome to 5 Minute Meditations. During the Advent season, we'll be releasing a short

0:10.6

episode meant to help you pause in the midst of your holiday hustle and focus on the true

0:16.0

reason we celebrate Christmas, Christ. So settle in, maybe close your eyes, take a deep

0:22.6

breath, and listen as we read and meditate on scripture together.
