3rd Sunday of Advent December 14, 2025Sermon Series: The Lights of the SeasonSermon: Turning Lights On Scripture: Luke 1:26-38What does it look like to let God’s light break in—fully, boldly, and right where we are? This Sunday, we continue The Lights of the Season with Turning Lights On from Luke 1:26–38, as Mary receives the astonishing news that she will carry the Savior of the world. Her courageous “yes” becomes the moment God’s light begins to shine in a whole new way.Just as flipping on a light changes everything in an instant, Advent reminds us that God’s presence often meets us unexpectedly—calling us to trust, to believe, and to step forward with faith even when the path isn’t fully clear.As you prepare for worship, consider: Where might God be asking you to say “yes” in this season? What new light could God be turning on in your life?  How is Christ’s presence illuminating your waiting and your hope?Join us for the Third Sunday of Advent as we open ourselves to God’s surprising, hope-filled light.Advent Sunday Worship Schedule9:45–10:30 AM · Sunday School 10:45–11:00 AM · Carols & Hymns 11:00 AM · ONE Service for Advent
