In life, we have checklists of tasks to remember and perform ahead of our daily activities. Preparation and adaptation are vital as we face challenges to our checklists. In today's Gospel, we see how our daily checklists pale in comparison to the story of John the Baptist. Join Pastor Johann as he discusses the vital preparations of the believer's life as we strive to prepare our hearts, purge sin from our lives, repent, and focus on Jesus, as he gives us deep peace and rest.
