Advent 2025: Come Thou Long Expected Jesus | Rachel Palmbush

Today Pastor Rachel explores the tension between longing and hope through the timeless hymn "Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus." Rachel invites us into the church's ancient practice of waiting—not as passive observers, but as active participants in God's redemptive story.
