Information vs. Transformation
Last week, Peter told us to “live holy and godly lives” as we wait for the End. But what does that look like? Christians often turn to spiritual practices like reading scripture or prayer, but just as often, those practices leave us feeling empty. If we learn to approach these practices for transformation rather than information, we will unlock the key to spiritual life: we must wait for God to make us holy. And we can trust that God will, because God is faithful to come to us, as the first Christmas proves.

Jesus’ disciples often asked him when his Kingdom would come in full, when this new life he always talked about would arrive. In response, Jesus told several parables that illustrated the tension we feel as we wait for his kingdom to come on Earth as it is in Heaven. Waiting in Jesus’ new reality isn’t passive. It’s an active, intentional patience. So how do we wait well?
