Hope of Love | John Challinor
In week two of our Advent series, A Reason For Hope, we lean into the period of waiting that took place while anticipating the arrival of Jesus. In today's teaching, we turn to the Bible to see how waiting is actually an act of love that God has given to us.Waiting is never void of tension and we live in a culture that tells us that the act of hurrying and receiving instant results are far better than waiting. But what if the tension of waiting is actually designed by God, out of love, to give you a fresh experience and perspective while you're in the waiting. Check out today's message to hear how you can be confident that God is up to something, while you're in the waiting.
