How have your emotions been lately? Have you been able to feel anything other than sadness and madness? What if God’s gift of joy was unstoppable? Find out how God provides this gift through Jesus our “Mighty God”. Pastor Bob Huisman will open God’s word with us from Isaiah 9:6. Some of our students will help us journey through the season of Advent and expectation as we prepare to celebrate Christ’s birth and God’s great love for the world.

Pastor Bob Huisman
Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
And over all these virtues put on love,
which binds them all together in perfect unity. Colossians 3:12-14
