Episode 3: Advent, Hope, and the True Meaning of Christmas

This week on The Un-Fun Friends Podcast, we’re pausing Part 2 of our body image conversation to lean into the season we’re in—Christmas. In Episode 3, we talk about what Jesus’s birth truly means for us today, not just as a story we’ve heard, but as living hope in a world that can feel heavy—especially during the holidays. We reflect on: Advent as a season of waiting, longing, and celebration How the wonder of Christmas has changed as we’ve grown up Experiencing hardship, grief, or unmet expectations during the holidays Why the hope of Christ is a light that cannot be overcome by darkness Shifting from gift excitement to a deeper understanding of the true meaning of Christmas Whether this season feels joyful, complicated, or somewhere in between, our prayer is that this episode reminds you that Emmanuel—God with us—has already come. 🎄 Merry Christmas, friends.
