Second Sunday of Advent

In the season of Advent, we count down the days until Christmas. This Advent, we center our worship on God’s promise: the promise of a Savior. Trusting in God’s enduring faithfulness, we prepare our hearts to celebrate Jesus’ birth on Christmas while our longing hearts wait in hope for God’s promised Savior’s reign of peace.

This week we reflect on A Promise of Peace. Isaiah foretells the coming of the Prince of Peace, the child through whom God’s light shines in the darkness. The psalmist rests securely in God’s care, trusting the Lord alone to bring true peace. Even as we await Christ’s return, we hold fast to this promise — that God’s peace will prevail and all creation will find its rest in Him.
