This week we continue our Advent sermon series connecting the story of “It’s a Wonderful Life” to the good news of Jesus coming into the world. In particular, we consider the difference between happiness and joy—how we can work towards a joy that is not dependent on external circumstances. What may look dark is actually about to receive the light of the world!
Below is audio of the sermon and secondly audio of our own teenage church member Hope Gilbert singing an AMAZING solo!
We continue our Advent sermon series tying the beautiful story of “It’s a Wonderful Life” to the story of Christ being born into the world. This week we focus on the theme of peace: how can we be more at peace with ourselves, others and the world in this season?
Today is the first Sunday in Advent, kicking off a sermon series focused on the film “It’s a Wonderful Life” and its connections to the lessons of our familiar Christmas story. In particular, what does this film and its ups and downs have to say to us during this waiting time? What hope can be found within the hurry and chaos of preparing for the holidays?
