The Fourth Sunday of Advent

Julie Hagen || Candidate for Ordained Ministry

Isaiah 7:10-16 & Matthew 1:18-25

 

If we compare the story of Jesus' birth in Matthew and Luke, Matthew's version is short and simple. In these few sentences, we are presented with a vision of a loving God who will transform the world by being present in the messiness of life. 

What might happen if we dared to ask for signs of God’s presence and then intentionally and expectantly waited for the answer today?

Join us in worship this morning on the 4th Sunday of Advent as we ponder this question, contemplate the power of prayer, sing beloved hymns, and experience the gift of community.
