Christmas Can Still Change the World: Joy and Fear

Week three of Advent focuses on joy. In the Christmas story told by Luke, the angels announce a good news of great joy that drives out fear. Why are joy and fear connected? In this teaching, Josh explores this connection and the invitation of joy.

Christmas Can Still Change the World: The Lion is the Lamb

Week two of Advent focuses on peace. There are often two Jesuses that are talked about. Jesus 1.0 is the meek, compassionate Lamb who came to show love and grace. Jesus 2.0 is the Lion who is coming back to take revenge on his enemies. Is this how it works? Which is Jesus? In this teaching Josh invites us to see the real Jesus, the peacemaking Lamb.

Christmas Can Still Change the World: Seeing the Sign

"Therefore, the Lord will give you a sign. The young woman is pregnant and is about to give birth to a son, and she will name him Immanuel."When Isaiah wrote those words, who was he talking about? We immediately want to say "Jesus," but (in the words of Lee Corso), not so fast! By digging in to the original context, we can better understand why Matthew chose this text for his birth story of Jesus. Happy Advent!
