Worship Series: "Our Spirit Waits"
from
Worship Planning
Advent is here, and we begin the Christian year anew with a season of waiting. As the days grow
darker, we draw closer to the arrival of the Light that turns the world upside down—or right-side
up! The journey toward and beyond the manger is one of reversing expectations, encountering what we
thought we already knew in brand new ways, and receiving good news in unexpected places. So, with
one foot in the prophets and another in the Gospels, we journey together as our spirit waits to
welcome the Christ child and carry hope, peace, joy, and love as we live as disciples who
anticipate the now-and-not-yet kin-dom of God
This is the Second service of a 5 service Worship Series from the Discipleship Ministries.

This Service's Theme: "Our Just Peace"
We’re less than two weeks into December, and I don’t know about you, but I need a break. My

of?
