Advent is a season of preparation… and proclamation! How can we be a people who stands up for God’s peace, justice and love in our world? In this series, we’ll draw from Kathy Khang’s book, the Old Testament prophets and Mary’s journey to Bethlehem.
It’s time to speak up!

God as Mother
Women in our culture have a confidence problem - most women undervalue themselves (while most men tend to overestimate themselves). Women can find their confidence in the fact that they bear the image of God. While we usually think of God as Father, God often refers to Godself as a Mother in the Scriptures, too. What does it mean that God is both Father and Mother to us? How is the truth that God is both male and female good news to both men and women?
