A QUICK INTRO TO THE SERMON SERIES:

In the first advent of Jesus, God Himself stepped into our world, not because he had to, but out of complete, sacrificial love to make a way for us.

Our Advent journey this year is designed to point us back to him. For anyone who has walked through disappointing Christmases, unmet expectations, or restless searching, our prayer is that you would encounter Jesus and find the satisfaction and wholeness only he can give.

what is advent?

The folks at Bible Project explain very well what Advent is all about:

"The Advent season is a four-week period in the Christian calendar that prepares people for Jesus Christ’s birth at Christmas, while also pointing ahead to his promised return. Each Sunday of the season traditionally spotlights a key theme—like hope, peace, joy, or love—to invite reflection, prayer, and expectant celebration." 
The word ADVENT:

'The word “advent” comes from the Latin adventus, which is about a “coming” or an “arrival.” The Latin translation of the New Testament uses adventus to describe God the Son arriving on Earth, born as Jesus of Nazareth during the 1st century C.E.'
