Reconstructing Advent: Week 2

Virgin birth, shepherds visited by angels, and apocalyptic scriptures depicting thieves in the night – how do we reconcile these traditional faith narratives with our evolving spirituality? Over this series we will delve into these intriguing questions as we journey through the weekly lectionary readings. We invite you to be part of these very real and heartfelt conversations, exploring these themes together.

This week we take a look at Mark 1:1-8, which finds John the Baptist preparing the way for the Lord, and Lead Pastor Scott Hodge asks us to consider what new place and way of being might God be initiating us into in this Advent season.
