Advent
Our Early Winter Sermon Series
Traditionally, Advent is a time of waiting and wonder. Waiting is not always easy but it does provide us with an opportunity to consider what is most important to us. As we prepare to remember and celebrate Jesus’ birth, we are also to look ahead and think about His return. Just as His first coming continues to impact humanity 2000 years later, His second will surely transform it completely and forever. Are you ready? In our waiting we can prepare by knowing Jesus, our Emmanuel, our Peacemaker, our Example and our Priest.
