2nd Sunday of Advent December 7, 2025Sermon Series: The Lights of the SeasonSermon: Hanging Lights Scripture: Luke 3:2-20What does it take to prepare the way—not just with decorations and to-do lists, but within our own hearts? This Sunday, we continue The Lights of the Season with Hanging Lights from Luke 3:2–20, where John the Baptist calls God’s people to turn, reset, and ready themselves for the Light that is coming.Just as hanging lights takes intention, care, and a bit of rearranging, Advent invites us to look honestly at our lives and make space for Christ’s transforming work. John’s bold message reminds us that preparation isn’t passive—it’s active, courageous, and full of hope.As you prepare for worship, take a moment to reflect:What in your life needs “rearranging” so Christ’s light can shine more fully?How is God calling you to prepare the way in your daily rhythms and relationships? What new brightness might God be ready to hang in your life this Advent?Join us for the Second Sunday of Advent as we continue walking this sacred season—expectant, hopeful, and ready to shine.Advent Sunday Worship Schedule9:45–10:30 AM · Sunday School 10:45–11:00 AM · Carols & Hymns 11:00 AM · ONE Service for Advent
