We need to remain rooted in our mission as a church so refresh times are necessary.
The way that we fulfill our mission looks different in different times and under changing circumstances. So our messages need to have our mission as the starting point, then demonstrate how acting on that mission looks today.

Shameless Hope
Advent means coming. Church historians tell us this word comes to us in english via latin and originating in greek. They think that in the earliest centuries of the Christian Church, Advent was a time when people prepared for baptism and the second coming of Christ. Later on, it changed and was connected to the first coming of Christ as a baby in Bethlehem.
During this time of waiting for the coming of Jesus, we’re going to focus in on some major themes in scripture that help us understand why Jesus came, how necessary his coming was, and what difference his Advent makes to our lives today. As you use your advent devo book Come Let Us Adore Him, you will see these themes and others developed as we read together through the month of December. If you don’t have this book, contact us and we’d be glad to provide you with a copy. Not too late!
Our hope is that this series is a blessing to all ages. Whether in person or at home, we want everyone to see they have a place in our services. To do that, we will have different readers and Advent candle lighters. Also, we're going to incorporate short videos made in our homes, sharing something what you are doing at home to celebrate Jesus' coming together.

Under the Hand of God
Sunday, 22 November 2020 10am CST
We are liberated and vindicated in our suffering because Jesus suffered for us first. When we are ridiculed, mocked, shamed, disenfranchised, physically/emotionally/spiritually hurt, hated, know what we are vindicated because Christ suffered first. He endured the pain of the cross. The hate and sin of the entire world.
Much like an insignia marking, we have an identity as Christians that is authentic and genuine to Christians because of Christ’s calling for us. Our identity is setting our hope fully on the grace that will be brought to us at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Our identity is putting away resentment, dishonesty double standards, jealousy, and smearing others character. Our identity is in caring for others, sympathizing for others, and being humble. Lastly, our identity is being ready to suffer because Christ suffered.
