Insisting on Hope

Every Advent, we light candles, sing carols, and pray for Christ’s coming because we believe God entered a frightened world to bring good news. We hold onto hope because we believe that Christ did come - that’s the promise of the season. Our hope is not flimsy or fleeting. It’s gritty, resilient, and can endure - no matter what we fear or face. This season, let us insist on hope, peace, joy, love, and light, trusting that good news is greater than fear.
