Simply the Sermon for November 30, 2025: First Sunday of Advent

This beautiful Advent season calls us to not only fill our stockings and homes with presents, or to only busy our lives with activities and events...but to prepare ourselves for the coming of Christ.  Actually, two "comings".  To ponder once again at the wonder of the Word made flesh.  The Christ of the manger.  AND the second coming of Christ...which may seem a little more mysterious and obscure.  When will that be, we ask?  Many have tried to figure that out.  Perhaps we should be asking instead, "what are we to be doing in the meantime?"  Pastor Russ gladly filled in for Pastor Diana on this first Sunday of Advent and shares his thoughts.
