Reflections with Andy - Good News - Luke 4:16-21

Throughout the season of Advent, we’ll have a weekday reflection based on suggested scriptures from a great resource entitled The Common Rule. You can find a calendar of the daily readings here - https://www.thecommonrule.org/advent-readings

Today, we see Jesus’ sermon to His hometown folks.  He reads from Isaiah and shares that the Lord has anointed Him to bring good news to the poor.  This is fulfilled at that moment because Jesus is the fulfillment of that.  He is good news. As I’ve heard it said, if it’s not good news to the poor, it’s not good news.  The temptation of Christmas is to make it about us and not about Jesus.  There is a world all around in need that He has called us to serve. Let’s have eyes to see, ears to hear, and hands and feet to serve.  That is what Christmas calls us to.

Join us for our daily reflections with Andy. In 10 short minutes, he'll dig a little deeper into Scripture and help you better understand God's Word.
