Hope

Open Life Church

Week 1

December 3, 2023 • Thad Huff • Romans 15:13, Psalm 130:5–7, Luke 1:26–35, 1 Peter 1:3–5, Colossians 1:3–5

In the first week of Advent, we look at the Advent theme of Hope. As followers of Jesus we have both hope in Jesus as well as hope for his return again. How do we live with this hope in our lives right now as we both look back and look forward to Christ? Join us for the first week of this series.

Open Life Church gathers together each Sunday in person at the Bonney Lake High School Performing Arts Center at 10 am, but this pre-recorded message is for those who aren't able to be with us in person.

Peace

In the second week of our Advent series we look at Peace. Do we see peace as our own self-fulfillment in our pursuit of happiness or do we see the eternal peace we have in Christ? This will change the way we live as broken things become whole in Christ Jesus.
