Another nice video from the Church of England advent calendar today - a group of people in Brighton have turned their beach huts into a big Advent calendar. Hurrah for interesting creativity!

Again I want to commend to you today's video from the Church of England Advent calendar. It's a quiet suggestion about ways that walking slowly and attentively can help bring us closer to the divine.

Today's Advent Calendar video on the C of E website is a very lovely quiet meditation - not overtly Christian, but very calm and gentle, with some beautiful images. It is designed as a workplace meditation, and I thoroughly commend it to you.
