Are you Listening?

HopeGateWay

Advent is a four-week season of anticipation and preparation, leading to Christmas. During this year’s Advent worship series, Are You Listening?, we are reminded it’s an old story, and we tell it every year: the fear, the readiness, the risk, and the listening. Sometimes, the story of Jesus’ birth feels unbelievable. But in it, if we still our hearts and listen, we catch glimpses of ourselves. This is the story of ordinary people, like us, responding with ordinary fear and bravery to the voice of God. Do you ever wonder what God is trying to say to you? If God is speaking at all? Listen...this Sunday is from the perspective of Joseph. The character of Joseph speaks about not letting fear of the future prevent you from seizing the opportunities of the future and to live into the newness God is ushering in.
