God's Presence & His Promises

Hope has oft been co-opted into a fleeting, passive emotion in our culture. But biblical hope is action-oriented and rooted in the truth of who God is, what He’s done, and who that now makes us in light of that. This Advent season we’re exploring what this true and living hope looks like through our Gatherings, daily readings, and weekly conversations. CLICK HERE to check out those resources.

For Week 2, we looked backwards in the Biblical Narrative to the well-known Scripture of Isaiah 9":1-7. Daniel taught us that ‘God always keeps his promises and accomplishes his purposes and he does so through his presence.’ Give it a listen.

Like thousands of churches worldwide, this global pandemic has forced us to be creative in our response — both in terms of how we gather and how we serve our community. Though we believe the normative pattern established in Scripture for community anticipates embodied presence of the Gathered Church, there are certain times where that’s not as safe. We find ourselves in such a time and are thankful to be able to leverage the digital landscape to remain faithful to plugging into community. This week’s Gathering came by way of smaller House Gatherings (following local, state, and federal guidelines) via Zoom. We’d love for you to join us next week!
