When faced with hard truths, the disciples doubted and asked Jesus clarifying questions. Jesus reorients them to the greater mission of God, and how Jesus guides us all towards the eternal future he secures.

John 14:1-14
Rev. Joel St. Clair

When faced with hard truths, the disciples doubted and asked Jesus clarifying questions. Jesus reorients them to the greater mission of God, and how Jesus guides us all towards the eternal future he secures.


Advent is rooted in the idea that we live between two arrivals – Jesus’s first advent in the incarnation and the second advent when he will return as King to bring about justice and restoration. The two arrivals (advents) mean that the Christian life plays out in the in-between. We may look back and learn from those who waited for the first advent as instructive for us today in waiting for His second advent.

Through this Advent series we will be working through just who we are waiting for - Jesus is the one. The “I am” statements provide Christians with a view of our Savior as we wait for his return.
