A new text for an old Advent tradition – A Doxology for Humanity

From Following Jesus: A life of faith in a postmodern world – on Facebook from where these images also appear. With thanks to Imelda Kedge for the link

From Kurt at followingJesus.org

I wrote this for US Thanksgiving in 2013 when our table included those born in the USA, Iraq, Korea, and Ethiopia. With Christians, Muslims, and “nones” united, we sang the Doxology together as a common prayer for peace and justice in the world.

Some congregations and families are starting to use my “Doxology for Humanity” when lighting their Advent candles during the season of Advent. They are using one verse each Sunday.
