In the final week of Advent, Jason and Rachel reflect on Love — the love that sent Christ as a vulnerable child, walks with us through shadowy valleys, and calls us to love others well. This is the love at the heart of Christmas — not romance, nostalgia, or sentimentality, but the self-giving love that moved God to send His Son into the world.This conversation explores:❤️ Why Jesus came not as a conquering king, but as a fragile child❤️ What Mary’s “yes” teaches us about obedience, trust, and surrender❤️ How love is present both on the mountaintops and in the valleys of life❤️ Why Christmas love is meant to carry us beyond the season and into everyday livingThey discuss Christmas stories, books, and traditions that help us retell the Nativity in fresh ways—while also wrestling honestly with the limits of fictionalized retellings and the importance of returning to Scripture as our foundation.The episode also acknowledges a difficult truth: Christmas can be joyful and painful at the same time. For some, it’s a season of connection and warmth; for others, it highlights loss, loneliness, or unmet longing. Yet even there, God’s love remains present, walking with us through every valley.Ultimately, this episode points to the core message of Advent:We love because He first loved us.As the candle of Love is lit, we’re reminded that the greatest gift of Christmas is not found under the tree, but in a relationship with the God who chose to dwell with us.Hope. Peace. Joy. Love.Thank you for joining us for this Advent series.Faith, family, books, and films — this is Weatherford Daze.

Welcome to Weatherford Daze!

In Week 3 of Advent, Weatherford Daze turns to one of the most misunderstood Christmas themes: Joy. Jason and Rachel reflect on why joy is not the same as happiness—and why that distinction matters more than ever. Happiness depends on circumstances, but joy is something deeper, more resilient, and rooted in hope and peace that transcend our situations.

In this episode, they discuss:

• Why joy can exist alongside sorrow and struggle
• The biblical foundation of joy in Christ’s coming
• How Advent joy is quieter, deeper, and more lasting than seasonal cheer
• Stories, books, and films that capture joy as endurance—not escapism

Drawing from Scripture, personal reflection, and beloved stories, this conversation explores how Christian joy is not denial of pain—but defiance of despair. Joy becomes an act of faith, a declaration that light has come into the world and darkness does not win.

As the candle of Joy is lit, this episode invites listeners to slow down, reflect, and rediscover the joy that Christmas promises—not just for one season, but for a lifetime.

Advent is a journey: Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. Join us as we continue preparing our hearts for Christmas. Books, films, faith, and family — welcome to Weatherford Daze.

Welcome to Weatherford Daze!

In Week 2 of Advent, Weatherford Daze turns its focus to Peace - one of the most beautiful and most misunderstood themes of the Christmas season. Jason and Rachel explore the theme of Peace - why the world can’t find it, how Christ offers it, and how we can experience inner calm even in life’s storms. A heartfelt Christmas conversation.

Jason and Rachel talk honestly about why true peace seems so rare in our world - war, politics, conflict, and the everyday contentiousness of simply being human. Yet, as they remind us, peace doesn’t begin globally… it begins locally - in our homes, our families, and our hearts.

The episode dives into:

• What “peace on earth” truly meant when the angels announced Jesus’ birth
• Why Christ’s peace is “not as the world gives”
• How inner peace becomes the “eye of the storm” in a chaotic world
• The difference between forced quiet and genuine spiritual calm

They explore the story of I Heard the Bells and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow - how grief, war, and despair gave birth to one of the most powerful Christmas reflections on peace ever written.

They also share stories from books, film, and faith about learning to quiet the noise, embrace stillness, and find the peace that Jesus — the Prince of Peace — came to bring.

Whether you’re overwhelmed, overcommitted, or just longing for a silent night of your own, this episode is an invitation to breathe, to rest, and to remember the One who gives a peace that passes understanding.
