Love it When a Plan Comes Together

Christmas at the Crossroads

The New Year is a great excuse to soar up to 30,000 ft and look at the big story of God's plan. Christmas isn't a day or even a season. It's a new reality Jesus invites us into. Now we can all be part of God's giant story of redemption!

From Series: "Christmas at the Crossroads"

2020 has been a year of a lot of changes. How can we navigate change well? How can we be prepared for a future that hasn't manifest yet? This Advent season, we're exploring how God's people prepared for the unexpected arrival of Jesus - and how that can help us prepare for what's ahead of us!

In a world increasingly divided and hopeless, even something as simple as respectful disagreement seems impossible. But the prophets who taught Israel how to long for the birth of the Messiah made bold promises: weapons formed into gardening tools; wolves and sheep living in harmony; deserts blooming. Such promises seem impossible – like pure imaginative fiction. But God’s promises aren’t fiction. They’re a future God is bringing into existence. Jesus birth proves God is with us, that God is working. We can have purified imaginations, see the world as it will be, and begin to work for that world now. What does it mean to be a people of Advent?

Advent means the impossible has been made possible!
