CROWN HIM (CHRISTMAS)
Call to Worship: Isaiah 40:3-8
Welcome to this first week of Advent. This season of life in the Church is where we look back on the coming of Christ and look forward to His return. If Christ has come, He will come again. Every song we will sing this morning is looking back on Christ’s first coming and looking forward to His return. Let’s sing together:
JESUS!
O COME O COME EMMANUEL
Reading: Luke 1:26-38
Sermon: John 1:43-51
The season of Advent is a reminder that God rarely comes to us in the way, we would expect. The Creator and Sustainer of the universe is born as a helpless baby. The One who is holy is also the One who moves near. Though He has all the riches of heaven, He lays aside His glory and takes the form of a servant. He is transcendent and immanent. Come and see brothers and sisters, come and see.
HOLY (JESUS YOU ARE)
COME THOU LONG-EXPECTED JESUS
Reading: John 1:1-5
