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!

Joshua - Where's the Manna?
While Israel wandered in the wilderness between the slavery of Egypt and the freedom of the Promised Land, God provided manna for them to eat every day. But after they arrived in the Promised Land, the manna stopped. Did this mean God abandoned them? No. It meant that they now had to start feeding themselves, using the bounty of the Land God had given them. This is a model for our Christian faith: when we first start out, as spiritual infants, God\\\'s presence is easy to sense, and everything seems easy. But God won\\\'t let us remain infants; we must grow up, learn to feed our own souls.
