Today’s Gospel (Matthew 11:2–11) brings us a powerful Advent message of hope and reassurance.

From prison, John the Baptist asks Jesus, “Are you the one who is to come?” and Jesus points to the signs of God’s Kingdom already at work; the blind see, the lame walk, and the Good News is proclaimed to the poor.

As we celebrate Gaudete Sunday, we’re reminded that even in moments of doubt or waiting, Christ is truly among us, bringing healing, joy, and new life.

Take a minute to reflect with the Diocese of Paisley’s Gospel in 60 Seconds as we continue our journey towards Christmas.
