Advent: The Whole Story Podcast: Recent Episodes
Paul Tripp
It just doesn’t work to start in the middle of a story. There will be conversations and decisions and reactions that make no sense to you because you missed the beginning. In this Advent series, you hear the whole story, from beginning to end.
It's one of the most radical phrases is all of the Bible. "Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him; he has put him to grief." We know that God isn't a sadist or a masochist, but why does the crushing of Jesus pleasure the Father? In this final Advent sermon, Paul Tripp preaches on Isaiah 53:10 and what this verse means for us.
It was the most important event to ever occur, accompanied by the most important song ever sung, containing the most important announcement ever made - "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom He is pleased." In this sermon, Paul Tripp opens Luke 2:14 to evaluate the announcement of the birth of Jesus Christ.
In this second Advent sermon, Paul Tripp breaks down the prophecy from Isaiah 59 to show where hope is truly found. Hope is never found in a situation, relationship, or location. Hope is only found in a Person, and his name is Jesus.
In this first Advent sermon, Paul Tripp teaches from Genesis 6 and shows that the heart of the Lord is grieved at the wickedness of humanity. In holy justice, God sends a great flood to destroy the earth. He also shows undeserved grace to Noah and his family, saving the generation of Abraham for the coming of the Christ.
