This is a four-part Advent (or Christmas) sermon series. “Advent” refers to the coming of Christ, which is what Christmas celebrates. “Emmanuel” means “God with us,” which is what Jesus was to be called, for he is God with us.

In the first Christmas, all of creation, and especially God's people, anticipated the coming of Christ. So in this four-part Advent sermon series throughout December, we will unpack the ways we can anticipate Jesus' advent this season as well in wondering, welcoming, worshiping, and waiting.

Especially in light of the difficulties the world has faced throughout the pandemic, the birth of Jesus into the world gives us unending hope. So as we enter into this season of Christmas, let’s invite our family and friends to Sunday Celebration and look for opportunities to share this hope that we have in Christ.
