In church services this December we’re celebrating Christmas all month and exploring the idea of waiting in the teaching. Not many people like waiting, it feels like a waste of time, but Christmas offers a unique perspective and we’d love for you to join as we discover the invitation.
Waiting Here for You | Dec. 15, 2024
In this third Sunday of Advent, Kristi spoke to us about hope. Hope is more than wishful thinking; it’s an expectant anticipation—a passion for the possible. Yet, hope can only exist in partnership with waiting. The two go hand in hand. We can wait with hope because the end of the story has already been written. Our hope isn’t just in what could be but in what we know will be.

This Sunday, as we continue in Advent, we reflect on waiting with God while we wait on God. What are we waiting for? Pastor Danny walked us through the story of God, from the perfection of Genesis’ Eden to the restoration promised in Revelation. The good news is that because of Jesus, the kingdom is already here—eternal life has begun. Danny reminded us to actively engage in this waiting, holding onto the hope of complete restoration and living in the wonder of God’s presence now.

This Sunday marks the beginning of Advent, a season of anticipation and preparation. Pastor Dale encouraged us to embrace the spiritual discipline of waiting. While waiting can be the anticipation of something arriving, it is also the space between, the emptiness. It can be full of pain and longing, where we are tempted to pursue things that look good in the moment but ultimately do not fulfill. Our daily rhythms of waiting on God as He waits with us invite us to find His presence in the midst of longing.
