Dear Friend,
Advent is both a celebration of the arrival of Christ, our Emmanuel – God with us - and a yearning for His second coming, when Christ and the kingdom of heaven will come in power, fully revealed to the world. The Christian life is characterized by the “now, and not yet.” We can experience abundant life in Christ and His healing grace today, but there is so much more to come on the other side of eternity.
With our 2025 Advent Devotional guide, we invite you to engage in the “now” of celebration, living in full gratitude of all that Christmas means, and to also hold fast in the “not yet,” as our souls wait for the Lord, and we put our hope in Him.
We invite you to sign up so you can either receive the devotional thought in your inbox or reserve a printed version you can pick up at the Welcome Centre.
