Harbor of Grace Lutheran Church Worship 12.06.20 Second Sunday of Advent

 

Welcome to Harbor of Grace Lutheran Church. We’re so glad you joined us for the second Sunday of Advent. During Advent we call upon God to stir us up to prepare for the coming of Jesus, the Christ. I’m Pastor Jane Mountain and I invite you give our page a thumbs up and subscribe so you will receive notices of our weekly services. John the Baptizer calls people to repent, to clear the decks, to completely reorder their lives so that nothing gets in the way of the Lord’s coming. The reading from Isaiah gives the context for this radical call: the assurance of forgiveness that encourages us to repent; the promise that the coming one will be gentle with the little ones. Isaiah calls us all to be heralds with John, to lift up our voices fearlessly and say, “See, your God is coming!” We say it to one another in worship, in order to say it with our lives in a world in need of justice and peace.
