Most Catholics think Advent is only about preparing for Christmas, but the Church teaches something far deeper. Advent has a hidden meaning rooted in the two Comings of Christ: His birth in Bethlehem and His return in glory at the end of time.


This episode with Fr. Cristino explains the forgotten meaning of Advent and why the Church begins this season with readings about judgment, vigilance, and the end of the world.
