E1 EXPECTING: Watch

Christmas is about Jesus. His name means “The Lord Saves”. It is a name of action that leads us to expect great things from God. “Expecting!” is the theme of our Christmas Message Series. We think of the people of Israel – they waited for a Messiah and a Saviour. We think of Mary – expecting a child given through God’s miraculous power. But what of us — waiting for the Lord Jesus to return – do we really expect him? Perhaps we need to refresh our spirit of expectation – to have a renewal of faith and hope so that together, we can become a people who truly expect great things from God.

Brent Hudson, Teaching Pastor, is speaker for episode 1 of the series. The key scripture is 1 Corinthians 1:3-9.
