Joy

Series: Advent Speaker: Pastor Nick Ressler Date: December 15, 2019 Synopsis: Pastor Nick makes a variety of connections across scripture to help us understand that while we once had a relational covenant with God, over time it became a legalistic religion. God sends Jesus to give us joy - as a way to restore our relationship with Him. Pastor Nick takes us from the vine transplanted in Psalm 80 to the Jesus’ declaration that he is the true vine in John 15. *Please be aware that Pastor uses two chairs as a physical example during the sermon. Although you cannot see, he uses the two chairs facing one another as the relational ideal. Mankind keeps turning our chair around and God seeks us out. When the Holy Spirit is given two us its like stacking the two chairs. We become one.
