Distance is on the mind these days. “Social distancing” will surely be among the top “Words of the Year” for 2020. Are we too close? Are we far enough apart? We name the challenges of long-distance relationships and sometimes exchange “absence” in the phrase saying instead: “Distance makes the heart grow fonder.” When we think of our culture today from the pandemics of COVID and racism to the distance we’ve known given polemic political stripes, it’s hard to imagine the hope, peace, joy, and love of the Advent season to come all that close this year. We might quickly quip when thinking of any of those joyous seasonal wonders, “Well, not so far!” But… the gift of Christmas is the love of Christ comes close. Maybe these realities are not so far after all. |
