"Advent" means "arrival", this is the time of the four weeks before Christmas, the feast on which, according to Christian tradition, Jesus is born. Today, the religious background is often pushed back by the Christmas market, hot tea, Christmas cookies, and the shops try to encourage customers to buy Christmas presents through a rich offer. Is that the case with you - or is it completely different?
spirituality is not the object of trade and faith has nothing to do with the economic market
I’m not sure who this question is directed at but most Christian denominations celebrate Advent, the most controversy that occurs is whether to decorate in purple or blue.
Advent is a very special time. Actually it means "coming"- referring to the birth of Jesus. There is a sense of heightened expectation as we move nearer to Christmas.But it also has an even deeper meaning- referring to the second coming of Jesus at the end of time. Advent hymns are full of this sense of heightened expectation.
Sir, our context is completely different. "Advent Sunday" or similar celebration is not in practice in our country. Christmas the greatest festival of Christians is observed here in a festive mood as in all most all countries of the world.
