Finding Hope. And Letting It Go - Jeremy Duncan
About this episode
Simeon waited his whole life for one moment—to hold the Messiah. When it finally happens, he doesn’t cling to hope. He releases it.
In this Advent reflection on Luke 2, we explore Simeon’s song (Nunc Dimittis) and what it teaches us about peace, waiting, generosity, and faith in an unfinished world. Christmas isn’t about getting everything we want—it’s about becoming the kind of people who pass hope forward.
If you’ve ever wondered whether believing still matters when the world hasn’t changed yet, this story is for you.
📖 Luke 2:22–35
