John 8:12-20 --
Jesus declares himself to be the light of the world. This language echoes images throughout history including the Pillar of Fire that led the Israelites by night. By faith in this light of the world, we not only have the ability to see the truth, but to know God personally.

Jesus declares himself to be the light of the world. This language echoes images throughout history including the Pillar of Fire that led the Israelites by night. By faith in this light of the world, we not only have the ability to see the truth, but to know God personally.


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.
