Waiting for a New Home

Bible Text: Revelation 21:1-3; 9-11 | Preacher: Joshua Burdette | Series: Advent: What Are We Waiting For?

The fault lines in the family become more obvious around the holidays. We anticipate the arguments around the table, the patterns that get reinforced, and the fights over which side of the family we are going to see. Others go home alone, dreading the insensitive questions from family. During the pandemic, we have experienced a loss of community and civil life that has lasted for almost 2 years and left many of us weary, isolated, and lonely. What does Advent have to do with our longings for home and community?

Praying in the Prolonged Delay

Bible Text: Luke 18:1-8 | Preacher: Paul Kim | Series: Guest Preacher

We just celebrated the triumph of life over death accomplished by Jesus’ resurrection at Easter. Yet we don’t have to look very far to see that death still operates in the world. How do we reconcile this contradiction and what do we do? This Sunday we look to a story Jesus told about justice.
