Advent speaks of our dual identity as people of this world and as God’s people. Come Emmanuel explores how we can hold this in tension and learn to relate our prayerfulness to everyday life. Ann opens up the depths of some very ancient prayers – the Advent antiphons – and discovers how much they can teach us for living as God’s people today.
