Comfort, Comfort My People

As we come to the Sunday of Advent, Jonathan will take us to Isaiah 40:1–8; 27–31. In this passage, God promises to come to his people and to reveal his glory — a hope that finds its first fulfilment in the coming of Jesus at Christmas. This passage reminds us that while human strength fades, God does not. His word stands forever, and he delights to renew those who wait for him. As we prepare to celebrate Christ’s birth, we’ll reflect on how this ancient promise still speaks comfort, strength, and hope to us today.
