Love

Dec 18, 2022    Pastor Beth Snarr

Advent is a season of waiting and waiting can be hard. As people of faith, we’re called to embody the gifts of hope, peace, joy and love while we deal with the difficulties and disappointments that come with living in an imperfect world. The prophet Isaiah pointed to the gift of the Christ-child 700 years before he came. In what ways do our lives point toward our commitment to and our gratitude for this eternal gift of Emmanuel, God with us and what does it mean for us to “wait well” in this sacred season and beyond? Pastor Beth takes a look at love using Isaiah 7:10-14. Verse 14 says “Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Emmanuel (which means ‘God is with us’).”
