490. Advent: The Need

With Advent season upon us, today’s episode is going to feature an advent sermon of Paul’s from the archives. In it, Paul teaches from Genesis 6 and shows that the heart of the Lord is grieved at the wickedness of humanity.In holy justice, God sends a great flood to destroy the earth. He also shows undeserved grace to Noah and his family, saving the generation of Abraham for the coming of Christ.-Every time the Christmas season comes around, we look forward to putting up a tree, giving and receiving gifts, and participating in other traditions that make this wonderful time of year so special. But sometimes the most significant aspect of the season — remembering and focusing on the coming of Jesus — grows old and familiar.In Come Let Us Adore Him: A Daily Advent Devotional, Paul Tripp seeks to recapture our attention and reawaken our awe during Christmastime. Each day is structured with a compelling, gospel-centered thought followed by an extended meditation for the day.Each of the thirty-one devotions also includes a Scripture reading and notes for parents and children, equipping us to do the one thing that matters most each December — celebrate Jesus.
