Joy

Dec 12, 2021    Dr. Harold Henderson

Advent is a season of waiting and preparation for the coming of Emmanuel, God with us, in flesh through the baby Jesus. In times of trouble, centuries before Jesus’ birth, prophets foretold his coming and gave their listeners much needed gifts of hope, peace, joy, love, and light. Today, we need these “presents from the prophets” too and we receive them most fully when we receive the baby of Bethlehem into our hearts anew. O Come, O Come Emmanuel!

This week, Pastor Harold continues the sermon series with a look at Isaiah 12. Verse 3 says “With joy you will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation!”
