Advent is a season of preparation and waiting - leading up to Christmas (fulfillment). As we conclude this time of year and look at Luke 2:22-40, we look into the value and opportunity that waiting provides us. We also unpack the stories of two patient individuals featured in Luke - Simeon and Anna - who had both been patiently waiting for the arrival of Jesus.
Join us as we examine the relationship between waiting and fulfillment - and how they give meaning to each other.

2 Thessalonians 3:1-18
The term “mission drift” is used these days to describe the inherent tendency of organizations to slowly and subtly drift from their original purpose. This can happen to a church as well. In chapter 3, Paul challenges the Thessalonians – and us – to stay focused on our purpose and warns against things that can consume our time & energy and turn us aside.

2 Thessalonians 2:1-17
Deception is all around us – besides spiritual deception about end times and other matters, there are lies that harm relationships, plus the constant barrage of false promises of the good life in advertisements. How do we avoid being deceived? Paul’s words to the Thessalonians in chapter 2 give us hope in an age marked by deception.

2 Thess 1:1-12
By the time Paul, Silas, and Timothy wrote their second letter to the Thessalonians, some things were better, but other things – like suffering – had grown worse. Paul’s words to them give us hope for now, that our present sufferings are not without purpose; and for the future, when our sufferings will end and justice will be served. And his words encourage us to keep our focus on Jesus Christ and press on.

1 Thess 5:12-28
This series in 1Thessalonians has been called “The Cactus Church” because the church, like the cactus, flourishes in a hostile environment. We live in challenging times, but the gospel was made for times like ours, and one of the best things we can do is make the church a place of strong and healthy community. In the closing verses of 1Thessalonians 5, Paul has given us a good idea of what this looks like in various areas of the church’s life.

The return of Christ will mean judgment for the unbelieving world and deliverance for his people. We are waiting for Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come. Because of his gracious work in us and for us, we are to live in a state of preparedness for his coming: alert and self-controlled, and full of faith, hope, and love.
