How are we changed if we pray, "Our Mother, who art in Heaven," or, "We believe in one God, the Mother Almighty?" If humans are created in God’s image, perhaps our understanding of and imagination for God has been too narrow.
Every day in Advent, tune in to spend a few minutes with God's femininity – as we prepare for her humanity.
