Advent Class

Voices of Advent by Matthew Skinner

Led by Brenda Smith and Martha Shaleuly

Dates: Nov. 16, 23 and Dec. 7, 21Location: Meeting on Zoom and in person

Join us following worship as we explore, Voices of Advent by Matthew Skinner. Dr. Skinner will lead us through biblical texts and explore how they shape our lives and Christmas celebrations. We listen as Jesus promises to return to us in the future, to John the Baptist as he prepares the way for the Messiah, to the faithful people and poets who anticipate the magnificence of Jesus’s birth, and to the angels and visionaries who praise God when Christmas dawns. Listen carefully to the Bible’s various perspectives that shape our preparations for Christmas; you’ll hear hope in all of them. Voices of Advent helps readers experience Advent not only as the start of the Christian Church Year, but also as the powerful overture that sets the tone for the incredible story of Jesus. This class has a book and video component. Preparation is encouraged but not required. Ten books will be available for free in the office.
