Voices of Advent -- Advent Study Series
Sundays at 11:45 am in the Fireplace Room (Beginning November 30th)
Voices of Advent: The Bible's Insights for a Season of Hope by Matthew L. Skinner
Study led by Pastor Cody Natland
This Advent season, you're invited to join Pastor Cody for a study that will help us to focus our hearts, spirits, and lives on the story of this season. The study will be held in the Fireplace Room after Coffee Hour on Sundays (beginning around 11:45am) beginning Sunday, November 30th. The study will feature a short video and discussion each week, and reading the accompanying book is encouraged, but not required for participation. Pastor Cody currently has 5 copies of the book available; contact him to reserve your copy. Donations to cover the purchase price of $10 are welcome, but not required.
In Voices of Advent, Matthew L. Skinner leads readers through biblical texts and explores how they shape our lives and Christmas celebrations. We listen as Jesus promises to return to us in the future, to John the Baptist as he prepares the way for the Messiah, to the faithful people and poets who anticipate the magnificence of Jesus’s birth, and to the angels and visionaries who praise God when Christmas dawns. Listen carefully to the Bible’s various perspectives that shape our preparations for Christmas; you’ll hear hope in all of them. Voices of Advent helps participants experience Advent not only as the start of the Christian Church Year, but also as the powerful overture that sets the tone for the incredible story of Jesus.
