If you are around today at 5:00 p.m. PST/8:00 p.m. EST and wished you could have heard Kathleen Norris’ great talk about Advent at the Seattle Art Museum a couple of weeks ago, you can catch her being interviewed online.  You can listen either over the phone or via the web, the information is here.

**ADDED NOTE ** You can click the link above to download the mp3 file and listen at your leisure (the sound doesn’t come on until just past the one minute mark, so be patient) :-)
