Today, we conclude Advent by looking at the genealogy of Christ. We see that this genealogy is unique among genealogies of the day for its inclusion of women and non Jews. What does this mean for us? Pastor Scott shows us by highlighting some of the more interesting people found in Jesus' family tree.

Today we continue our Advent journey by looking at the biblical theme of peace. In the Bible peace means something that is complete, or as it should be. Christ has come to establish peace in our lives but also in the world at large. In this sermon, we see how we can find peace in Christ even when our lives are far from peaceful. We also see that the Church has a vital role to play in making peace by caring for the marginalized.

This week we are kicking off Advent by looking at Psalm 130, a passage that emphasizes waiting on the Lord with deep longing.

We see that biblical hope is rooted in tension and waiting, not mere optimism. Scripture uses the language of anticipation, holding onto God’s promises even when circumstances feel dark or uncertain. Because of Christ’s coming, believers can anchor their hope in God’s character, His steadfast love, and His abundant redemption.
