About this podcast
Trinity Youth is back for a third season of Advent podcasts!
Join Dave and Haley every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday as we journey through Advent together and learn what it means to “prepare the way of the Lord” in our everyday lives. Each week explores one of the traditional Advent themes—Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love—through Scripture, honest conversation, and practical encouragement for students and families.
Week by week, we’ll reflect on:
Hope – reminding us that God’s promises remain steady and sure, even in seasons of darkness.
Peace – inviting us to rest in the presence of the One who calms every storm.
Joy – bursting forth as we remember that God is near and salvation is both now and not yet.
Love – calling us to embody Christ’s compassion as we prepare our hearts to welcome Jesus anew.
Whether you listen on the way to school, with friends, or during quiet moments at home, we can’t wait to share this Advent season with you.
