Advent II - Preparation

Preacher: Heath Haynes Series: Advent - 2014 Scripture: Luke 3:3–3:14

In our second week of Advent, we focus on "Preparing" for the coming Messiah. John the Baptist was called to prepare the way for the coming Messiah as he cried out as one from the wilderness a message of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

As we live in the present age where Christ has already come, we are compelled to live a life of preparation. A preparation of self and of the world around. We do this by repenting, shedding ourselves of sin more and more each day and living in such a way that awakens the world around us to the reality of the Kingdom of God the rule and reigh of a Soveriegn Holy God.
