Give Presence: Galatians 5.22-25

Speaker: Jerry Witham Series: Give Presence Passage: Galatians 5:22–5:25

What if Christmas looked different this year?  What if you could receive a gift that lasted forever?  Or what if you could give gifts that did?  We want to invite you to rethink Christmas with us this year and to experience it for what it was meant to be.

On Sunday, November 30 Advent begins. For some this might be new. It was for me and my family a few years ago as well, but it is a season that my family and I have grown to love and enjoy.  The word advent means to come. During the Advent season we celebrate God sending Jesus to earth wrapped in human skin. We also look with great anticipation to the second coming of Jesus, who is coming again for His Bride, the church. In Scripture Jesus testifies that He is the one who is and who was and who is to come (Revelation 1.8). This is what we will be celebrating this coming season. We will be celebrating Advent during our worship gatherings beginning November 30 culminating at our Christmas Eve service.
