Advent Study:
Faithful - Christmas through the Eyes of Joseph
Wednesdays 5pm: Nov. 28, Dec. 5, Dec. 12 & Dec. 19.
During this season of Advent we will be meeting for dinner and a study on Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus.
Dinner starts at 5:00 pm and we will begin our study at 5:15 pm. If your late don't worry about it...just come!!!
The study will last 90 minutes based on Faithful by author Adam Hamilton and will be interactive, with videos, opportunities for music and art as we contemplate the humble beginnings of Jesus. (We have three books available for purchase at $12, we also have the audio-book available to check out from our church library, for those with sight issues or those who are on the go!
From his beginnings as a humble carpenter to his all-important role as the earthly father of Jesus Christ, Joseph's place in the nativity story is sometimes overlooked but contains valuable lessons for all of us. Join Adam Hamilton as he examines Christmas through the eyes of Joseph. Absent from much of the biblical narrative, Joseph never spoke a word, but his courageous actions were crucial to the birth of Christ and God's salvation plan for humanity.
As you read this book, you will understand how Joseph's story is much like our own. In life, we encounter circumstances that we would never have chosen for ourselves. At times it can be tempting just to walk away. Joseph provides us a great example of humbly obeying God even when we don't understand and faithfully moving forward in the strength that God provides.
