Week 1 | The Hope of Advent | Romans 15:13
Message Us!
Hope isn’t a mood you try to maintain. It’s a promise you learn to trust. We launch Advent by going straight to Romans 15:13 and asking three simple questions that change everything: What is hope? Where does it come from? And how do we abound in it?
Along the way, we contrast wishful optimism with the Bible’s confident expectation grounded in God’s character and his unbroken track record—from Abraham to Bethlehem to the empty tomb.
Romans 15:13 teaches that true hope flows from God, is empowered by the Holy Spirit, and is experienced as we walk with Him.
Advent starts with hope because every other Advent theme—peace, joy, and love—flows from it. Our call is not to cling to a thin thread of hope, but to overflow with it as we prepare our hearts for Christ’s return.
