This week we explore where true, lasting joy is found from Luke 2:8–20. We see how the glory of God, revealed in the humble birth of Jesus, turns fear into joy and praise. As the angels announce good news and the shepherds respond by going, telling, and glorifying God, we’re reminded that our ultimate joy comes from a Savior who entered our world to save us from sin and bring us peace with God.
This week we remember that the Advent of peace is first and foremost the peace we now have with God because of Jesus Christ. In His coming, God fulfilled His promise to reconcile us to Himself, removing the separation caused by sin and giving us a deep, lasting peace that cannot be shaken. As we look to Christ, we celebrate the good news that through Him we are welcomed, forgiven, and made whole.
In week one of Advent, we look to hope—not a wish, but a confident trust in God’s unchanging promises. Zechariah’s prophecy in Luke 1:68–75 reminds us that God hears our prayers, keeps His word in sending the Messiah, and assures us of a future where Christ returns to make all things new.
In this message from 2 Samuel 9, we trace the story of Mephibosheth—an afraid, forgotten fugitive in Lo-debar—whom King David seeks out to show unexpected kindness for Jonathan’s sake. Through this powerful picture, we see how God pursues us in the “slums” of our sin and shame, not to execute judgment but to restore us, seat us at His table, and call us sons and daughters because of Jesus.
