The Baptism of Jesus

January 9, 2022 • Rev. Josh Hahne • Luke 3:21–22

Give

This Sunday we conclude our series Advent & Christmas in Luke with the baptism of Jesus. It is a short passage but for its size it tells us a shocking amount about Jesus.

Join us, and together we’ll listen to the voice from heaven and watch the Spirit move. We’ll also have some baptisms of our own and Three Kings’ Cake!

More from Advent, Christmas and Luke 2021

The Second Coming of Jesus

November 28, 2021 • Rev. Adam Feichtmann • Jeremiah 33:14–16, 1 Thessalonians 3:9–13, Luke 21:25–36

Advent is a time between. This season holds the tension between Jesus’ first advent (coming) and his second. A time that reminds us: things currently are not the way they are supposed to be - but one day they will be. On one hand it is “the most wonderful time of the year,” and on the other hand it is one of the darkest times of year. This Sunday we’ll begin our Advent sermon series by reflecting on Jesus’ second coming. In preparation for our time together, spend 5-10 minutes reading and praying through the following passages: Jeremiah 33:14-16, 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13, and the Gospel of Luke 21:25-36. I look forward to singing Advent songs with you all this Sunday as we prepare for the joy of Christmas! Pastor Adam

The Advent

December 5, 2021 • Rev. Josh Hahne • Malachi 3:1–4, Isaiah 40:1–11, Luke 3:1–6

PCA minister Tim Keller writes, “Christmas is not simply about a birth but about a coming.” This week we continue to consider the coming of Christ in the gospel of Luke. Like the other gospel authors, Luke begins with John, the son of Zechariah, who we know as John the Baptist. He sought to prepare Israel for the advent of God and declared, “All flesh shall see the salvation of God.” Join us this Sunday and together we’ll seek to learn from John the Baptist as well.

Preparing for Advent

December 12, 2021 • Rev. Josh Hahne • Isaiah 58, Matthew 25:1–13, Luke 3:7–18

Last week we were introduced to John the Baptist. He entered the story of Scripture when times were bleak. God’s people were occupied by foreign enemies, their faith had become sectarian and corrupt, and their prophets had gone silent. John comes with a singular message, the advent of God. This is what John the Baptist proclaimed, but his ministry was also one of preparation, to ready people for the Lord’s arrival. He did so by teaching about repentance, baptism, and the forgiveness of sin. Join us on Sunday and together we’ll learn from John and seek to prepare ourselves as we remember the arrival of God in Jesus Christ. Pastor Josh
