Advent – Stockton Anglican

Advent #1 – Hope

What comes to mind at the thought of Jesus returning tomorrow?

Mercy, Forgiveness, Faith, Submission and a Song.

What are our rituals? Why do we do them? Are they really helpful or are we using them to avoid real change?

The world is a mess, full of suffering, sin, and shame. Yet out of this world — a world that God loves — was born a saviour.

Is this the end? Is there a storm brewing? Should we just go shopping?

Our ultimate purpose in this life is to be ready and willing to point people to Jesus.
