ADVENT
In the Christian tradition, Advent is a time of the year where, as Christmas nears, we take time for self-reflection and repentance. We think of Jesus’ promise to one day return and consummate His Kingdom and we ask ourselves, “Are we ready?”. Only, then, in prayer and the study of God’s Word do we find hope, faith, joy, and peace as we celebrate and look forward to the second coming.

The Other Side Of The Tomb
The thing that sets Jesus apart from any other prophet, leader, or teacher in history is that when He died, Jesus did not stay dead. He walked out of that tomb alive. And the same is true for us. By the grace of the cross, though we were once dead in our sins, we can each be made new and alive through Him. But our story does not end there, in that individual moment. Because life on the other side of the tomb is fully lived in community.
