The Wonder of Advent
Led by Christian Barnes
by Lifeway Women
Wednesdays • Oct. 25 – Nov. 15, 2023
6:30 – 8:00pm • Room 232-234
The Advent season gives us the opportunity to delight in the promises we celebrate at Christmas: the HOPE that Jesus will return and make all things new; the JOY that comes from worshiping Him today and for eternity; the PEACE we experience with God today and we long for our world to experience when it is redeemed; and the LOVE of a God who sacrificed His own Son to be in relationship with us. In The Wonder of Advent, spend a week considering each of the themes of Advent—hope, joy, peace, and love. Each week you’ll trace that theme throughout Scripture by looking at: 1) an Old Testament prophecy; 2) a scene from the Christmas story; 3) a moment from Jesus’s earthly ministry; 4) a teaching of Jesus; and 5) a promise from Revelation. When your eyes are opened to these threads in Scripture, you’ll stand in awe of the glory and love of God, and you’ll be motivated to share the wonder of Advent with the world.
