Advent as Adventure | Christy Jo Harber

In this week’s sermon, Rev. Christy Jo shares a message from Matthew 24:36-44. We begin the season of Advent with a daring invitation: to see these four weeks leading to Christmas not as a time for passive waiting, but as an adventure! We are invited to “stay awake” not out of fear of the unknown, but in awakened awareness of the hope, peace, joy, and love God has already placed inside of us.

This sermon was preached on November 30, 2025.
