What a sneaky way to hook me into reading your daily Advent devotions. I already subscribe to the Gathering of Spirits so it was a delight to listen to Carrie sing “A Light in the Window.”
Yesterday, I immediately recognized the picture from “Light One Candle.” I recorded the PPM Holiday Concert during PBS’s Pledge Drive on our VCR over 35 years ago. Then we had someone transfer it to a DVD 20 years ago. Our family still watches it annually during December. Such a delightful combination of Hanukkah, Advent, Christmas carols, and PPM’s classics.
I’m not sure if this is the forumm to ask the question but I just signed up as a paid subscriber. I’ve received a receipt for payment yet I don’t know if that’s actually registered in the system because I received another email asking me to sign up as a paid member.
A lovely way to begin Advent. It made me ponder how waiting is integral to the Christian faith, but it is a complex waiting that includes patience, contemplation, personal/communal action.... all motivated by this line, “Now the old has already passed away, but the new is too new to be born today.” There is so much hope in this single line. Thank you for introducing me to Carrie Newcomer.
Thank you - I love everything about this beautiful gift of song.
I am now a fan! Thank you Carrie for sharing the light in the window of a dark world.
Love the image of a light in the window. Thank you! The light shines in the darkness and the darkness cannot overcome it.
Gorgeous!
A perfect {rayr to end my overly busy day. Thankyou Carrie.
prayer to end my day. Thank you
Perfect start. Sigh.

Just lovely.
This lovely song inspired us to put our own lights in the windows, symbolizing welcome to the stranger. Thank you, Fiana and Carrie.

A song of peace and hope. Thanks
I have lost access to this post for some reason. It keeps sending me to a podcast from another writer. Is there any way to get Diana’s post again?
