Anticipating the Advent: The Gift of Love

Thank you for joining us for our time of corporate worship here at Chapel City Church! As we draw closer to Christmas, the anticipation is building. Some are anticipating time with family and friends, some giving and receiving gifts, and some are waiting expectantly for a break from work or school. As Christians, we know that we are not only waiting to celebrate the first coming of Christ, but that we live in constant expectation of His return. But what does that have to do with advent? The themes of hope, joy, peace, and love are not seasonal. Those precious things are available for the people of God on a continuing basis. This week, we will look at love. Where does love come from? How do we know what it looks like? What does that mean for us as we seek to love others as God has loved us?

In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
