Advent Part IV: Trees in Plain Sight


Listen Later

"Trees in Plain Sight" – Psalm 1, Isaiah 11:1

Part IV of the sermon series, "Advent in Plain Sight." Roughly based on a devotional written by Jill Duffield.

Sermon by Dr. George C. Anderson from Sunday, December 19, 2021. "The poet, prophet and Jesus—in calling for good fruit, in calling for a quality of living—would ask those kind of questions in a different way. They would ask:

If I am healthy, am I contributing to the health of others? 
Am I helping to address and ease pain? 
Am I seeing and responding to those who have mental or financial anxiety? 
Am I helping others move from surviving to possibly thriving? 
Am I serving those who serve me? 
Am I building community? Am I spreading love? 
Am I helping others to be happy?
They ask the questions in this way because happy are those who bear good fruit."
