Advent | The Thrill of Hope

Advent | The Thrill of Hope

You're watching Week One of our new teaching series as we enter the season of Advent. For the next four weeks, we’re going to focus on a different theme of celebration and anticipation—hope, peace, joy, and love. You can also join us in-person at any of our locations! Check out churchonthemove.com for times and locations. ______________________ WHAT IS ADVENT? When many people think of Advent, they often think of plucking chocolates from behind the window of an Advent calendar.  But the word advent actually comes from the Latin adventus, which simply means “arrival.” Advent is the coming, the arrival, of the presence of God Himself through Jesus. For hundreds of years, followers of Jesus have set aside the four weeks leading up to Christmas as a meaningful season of celebration and anticipation.
