Rev. Phil Dieke kicked off Advent and our new worship series, "O Come Emmanuel: Experiencing God Among Us." The theme for week one of Advent is Hope. Phil discusses his complicated relationship with hope, specifically hope in relationship to fear. This complicated relationship ties into the scripture reading for week one of Advent, Luke 21:25-36 - an apocalyptic text.  

Let us know what you think about hope, fear, and their relationship to time!
