This Sunday in worship, we continue the Advent series, Those Who Dream. Pastor Julie will preach the message “Those Who Dream Prepare the Way” from Mark 1:1-8, in which John the Baptist calls the crowds (including us) to the journey of repentance and transformation. Lectionary texts are Isaiah 40:1-11 and 2 Peter 3::8-15.
Those who dream prepare the way for God’s message of love and liberation to be shouted, heard, and received. Those who dream lay the ground for righteousness and peace to join hands—for faithfulness to spring up from the ground (Ps. 85:10-11).
