Practicing the Christian act of nay saying.

3 false understandings we need to repent of.

Jesus points us to who he is and what he has done on our behalf.

We need to stop turning back and continuing forward in our pursuit of Christ.

You do what you already know God wants you to do. You identify your God-given shape. You ask God to show you, then look for his answer. You listen.

Jesus wants us to answer this question: Who do you say that I am?

We are to accept Jesus as King, worship Jesus as God, and accept Jesus as our sacrifice.

When we light the candles of Advent, we get in touch with the love, joy, peace, and hope, of the gospel of Jesus.

The invitation of Advent is to set our hope back on Jesus.

Three steps to find joy: give thanks, draw near to God, and curate your mindstream.
