Series: What Can't Wait
December 22, 2024 | Rev. Nicole Caldwell-Gross
At Christmas, we celebrate the ultimate bold and lavish act: God sending His Son into the world. Jesus didn’t arrive quietly or sparingly. Angels filled the sky to proclaim His birth. A star blazed brightly, leading wise men on a long journey to worship Him. In the same way, God’s love for us is big, bold, and extravagant—immeasurable in its depth and scope. John 3:16 reminds us, "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." God didn’t hold back. God gave His best, His all. God gave us Jesus.

As we enter this season of Advent, we are invited to slow down, reflect, and anticipate the coming of Christ. But Advent is also a time to recognize the urgency of what can't wait. In a world that often rushes ahead, filled with distractions and noise, there are moments and truths that demand our immediate attention—God’s love, His promises, and the hope of salvation through Jesus Christ. This Advent, we will explore the themes of hope, peace, joy, and love—all of which can't wait.
