Advent Questions
The season of Advent is filled with waiting and anticipation. We wait and anticipate the celebration of Christmas Eve—the reality that God sent his son, Jesus, into the world. We also wait and anticipate the promise that he will come again! The season of Advent can also be filled with a lot of questions. This Advent, we will dive into questions about this season that impact our everyday lives. Questions about the Christmas blues, prophecy, peace, and joy. Join Hope this Advent as we prepare our hearts and minds to celebrate the greatest gift we have ever received—Jesus.
