December 19O Root of Jesse's stem,sign of God's love for all his people:come to save us without delay!The Roman Church has been singing the "O" Antiphons since at least the eighth century. They are the antiphons that accompany the Magnificat canticle of Evening Prayer from December 17-23. They are a magnificent theology that uses ancient biblical imagery drawn from the messianic hopes of the Old Testament to proclaim the coming Christ as the fulfillment not only of Old Testament hopes, but present ones as well. Their repeated use of the imperative "Come!" embodies the longing of all for the Divine Messiah.-----------------------------------To learn about the ministries and office of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, visit us online at archgh.org.FacebookInstagramYouTube

Listen in as Susan and Alex discuss the paradoxical nature of Advent and how letting go of expectations can help us fully embrace this season of the Christian year. Listen to the O Antiphons at this link.The O Antiphons:"O Wisdom!" "O Adonai!" "O Root!" "O Key!" "O Light!" "O King of the Nations!" "O Emmanuel!""These poetic prayers reverberate with longing and hope. They tell us we need a rescuer and a ransom. They remind us that, even if we had never heard the name of Jesus, we would still need all he came to give." ~Tish Harrison Warren, AdventThanks for listening to the Embodied Holiness Podcast.

MONDAY OF THE FOURTH WEEK OF ADVENT “I am Gabriel, who stand before God. I was sent to speak to you and to announce to you this good news. But now you will be speechless and unable to talk until the day these things take place, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled at their proper time.” In today's Gospel reading from Luke, the angel Gabriel appears before Zechariah to announce that John the Baptist will be born to Elizabeth although she is advanced in years. Zechariah's prayer, Gabriel says, has been heard. Zechariah questions Gabriel by saying, “How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is advanced in years.” Whether there was something in Zechariah's tone that suggested disbelief, Luke doesn't say. What is clear is that Gabriel saw that Zechariah did not believe him and because of this he was unable to talk until the birth of John. Luke tells us in a later passage how Zechariah came to speak: “Immediately his mouth was opened, his tongue freed, and he spoke blessing God.” What did Zechariah learn from God while he was mute? How did God speak to him in his speechlessness so that he would open his mouth, blessing God? God, I believe in you yet fail to believe. My belief is not perfect but a work in progress, always coming into being in an imperfect way. Thank you for the blessing of my faith and for the sacraments, where you work with me where I am in perfecting my faith. I want to know the way to greater certainty of your work in the world and your work in me. Lord, you speak and from your mouth come perfect being and love. Help me today to understand how to quiet my voice—my spoken words and inner voice—so that I come interiorly to know you and bless you. Lord, be my strength today. Quiet my soul today and these few days leading up to the birth of Jesus your Son. “For you are my hope, O LORD,” today's Psalm says, “my trust, O God, from my youth. On you I depend from birth; from my mother's womb you are my strength.” Be with me today as you were at my birth and always have been. Strengthen me today to believe you and trust you. From the O Antiphon for today: O Root of Jesse's stem, sign of God's love for all his people: come to save us without delay! Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

The O Antiphons are a thing during Advent. What are they? What is the purpose? These are prayed during evening prayer and it is the verse recited before the Magnificat. Today we are talking about O Root of Jesse. It comes from Isaiah's prophecy “from you a flower shall spring forth”. And would this be a truly great episode if our hosts didn't talk about Tolkien?

O Root of Jesse, standing as sign among the peoples,  before you kings will shut their mouths, to you the nations will make their prayer: Come and deliver us, and delay no longer!  Today’s reading: Luke 1:26-33 I wonder how Mary felt, in her body and in her heart, when God’s messenger appeared? I wonder how his words sounded in her ears? Have I ever heard very good news? How did my heart feel inside?  I wonder: can I sit with Mary, right now, and hear how good Gabriel’s words to her are? What do I want to say to God about this good news? Jesus’ name means “God saves.” In Advent, we look inside and notice all of the ways we need God to save us. We look at our world and feel sad for all that is broken, and for all of the things we need God to come and deliver. I wonder: can I ask, and hope, for Jesus to come and do his saving work in me, and in my world?

O Root of Jesse, standing as sign among the peoples,  before you kings will shut their mouths, to you the nations will make their prayer: Come and deliver us, and delay no longer!  Today’s reading: Psalm 72:1-14 I wonder what Solomon hoped for, when he wrote this song and sang it to God? What was his dream for his kingdom? God’s king will save needy people who cry out to him; he will save those who are hurting and have no one else to help. I wonder: how am I hurting or needy today? What do I want to say to God? I wonder: who do I know, or who do I see in my city or town, who is needy or hurting? Can I cry out to God for them right now? Solomon prayed that all nations and leaders would bow down to God’s king. I wonder: can I imagine a day when the whole human family is joined in singing praise to Jesus? I wonder what that will sound like? Can I rest in that very good hope right now?

O Root of Jesse, standing as sign among the peoples,  before you kings will shut their mouths, to you the nations will make their prayer: Come and deliver us, and delay no longer!  Today’s reading: Isaiah 11:1-2, 6-10 I wonder: can I hold in my mind the picture of a tree that has been broken and battered by a storm? How does that image make me feel? I wonder how God’s people felt, when they heard these words from Isaiah? I wonder if it was hard to believe that there was still life and promise in the roots of the broken tree? Are there any ways that my heart is like this broken stump? What in me needs to be nourished by God’s love? Can I talk to God about that right now? I wonder what it will be like, when Jesus, the Root of Jesse, comes to be with us again. Can I imagine a world where a wolf will live with a lamb, and no one will hurt or destroy? Can I imagine a time when everyone knows and trusts God’s love for them? What can I say to God about that time? We Wonder is written and hosted by Sarah Dahl; produced by Richard Clark; and engineered by Nick Thompson and Noah Kirby.

Advent Apocalypse: Lessons and Carols, celebrating the season of expectation in word and song.This year our worship series Advent Apocalypse is looking at scripture that remind us Advent is not just about preparing to celebrate the birth of Christ in Bethlehem, it is also about looking forward to the return of Christ.In the Middle Ages, the Church observed Advent as a season of great solemnity. There was a spiritual preparation similar to Lent with an emphasis on prayer and fasting — along with contemplation of scriptures related to judgment, hell, and heaven.Advent also created sacred time and space for celebration because Christ would return, not only as Judge, but also as Savior, and would usher in the Kingdom of God here on earth. Today we embrace the hope we have in the future return Christ who will banish all sin.Our worship service this morning is a celebration of Advent Lessons and Carols. This service aims to recapture that Advent longing and hope we have in the promise that God will deliver all people from sin and death. In the monastic tradition, the Magnificat, the song of Mary, is sung or spoken every day at Evening Prayer. During the last week before Christmas, there is special group of prayers called antiphons that are said before and after the Magnificat each day. These are called the O Antiphons, because they all begin with “O” as a way of addressing the Messiah with various titles drawn from the Hebrew scriptures:O Wisdom, O Lord, O Root of Jesse, O Key of David, O Rising Dawn, O King of the Nations, and O Emmanuel, God with Us.Today’s service is based on these “O Antiphons.” If we were to pray these prayers each night the week before Christmas, and we also understood Latin we would discover the hidden meaning in the order of the words. The Benedictine monks arranged these antiphons with a definite purpose. The Latin text of the O Antiphons imbeds an acrostic: read in reverse order from last to first antiphon, the second word of each stanza begins with the letters ERO CRAS, Latin for “Tomorrow, I will come.” This word is only revealed when praying the final “O Antiphon” on December 23. This reminds us that we are not only looking to the past to celebrate the incarnation of Christ but we also look to the future promise of Christ’s return.Music provided by Nathan Drake and used by permission (https://www.reawakenhymns.com/the-soul-felt-its-worth-videos).Support the show (http://tinyurl.com/donatecumc)

O Radix Jesse: O Flower of Jesse's stem, you have been raised up as a sign for all peoples; kings stand silent in your presence; the nations bow down in worship before you. Come, let nothing keep you from coming to our aid. Isaiah had prophesied, But a shoot shall sprout from the stump of Jesse, and from his roots a bud shall blossom. (Isaiah 11:1), and A On that day, the root of Jesse, set up as a signal for the nations, the Gentiles shall seek out, for his dwelling shall be glorious. (Isaiah 11:10). Remember also that Jesse was the father of King David, and Micah had prophesied that the Messiah would be of the house and lineage of David and be born in Davids city, Bethlehem (Micah 5:1).

O Root of Jesse, standing as an ensign before the peoples, before whom all kings are mute, to whom the nations will do homage: Come quickly to deliver us.

"Oh, come, O Root of Jesse, free  Your own from Satan’s tyranny;  From depths of hell your people save,  And bring them victory o’er the grave." For nine centuries Christians have been singing this hymn during the season of Advent, urging Jesus Christ to come and set them free from the tyranny of Satan, death, and hell. We still live in that confident hope, so we still invite him to come. True, the Lord will  arrive with swift judgment. He will cut down those who refuse to produce the fruits of repentance that he looks for, and he will cast them into the fire. Yet for all those who put their hope in him, he will come with mercy and grace. He will make all things new, bringing everlasting peace. "Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to you, O Israel!"

Jesus is the Root of Jesse, Who sustains and nourishes God’s people through every season of life, restoring them to God’s favor and producing fruit in them and throughout the earth. Isaiah 11:1, 10-12

Advent means arrival, specifically the arrival of Jesus. So Advent is more than a season, it is a practice. We practice Advent by waiting on Jesus. We can wait on Jesus through use of the ancient O Antiphon Prayers. This week we will use the prayer "O Root of Jesse" to take us to Isaiah 11. What does it mean to wait on Jesus, when the world around us looks like a cut down forest?

The third daily devotion on the "O Antiphons." O Root of Jesse, standing as an ensign before the peoples, before whom all kings are mute, to whom the nations will do homage: Come quickly to deliver us.

Isaiah 11 promises that “there shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit.” CJ reminds us of the good news of Christ, who is both the root and shoot of eternal life from the burned out stump of God's people.

O Root of Jesse!Saints, sinners, unbelievers - all created by the Father for His Glory.BenedictusBlessed be the Lord,The God of Israel;He has come to His people and set them free.He has raised up for us a mighty Saviour,Born of the house of His servant David.Through His holy prophets He promised of oldThat He would save us from our enemies,From the hands of all who hate us.He promised to show mercy to our fathersAnd to remember His holy Covenant.This was the oath He swore to our father Abraham:To set us free from the hands of our enemies,Free to worship Him without fear,Holy and righteous in His sightAll the days of our life.You, My child shall be calledThe prophet of the Most High,For you will go before the Lord to prepare His way, To give his people knowledge of salvationBy the forgiveness of their sins.In the tender compassion of our LordThe dawn from on high shall break upon us,to shine on those who dwell in darknessAnd the shadow of death,And to guide our feet into the way of peace.Glory to the Father,and to the Son,and to the Holy Spirit.As it was in the beginning.is now, and will be forever.Amen.
