“Advent marks the beginning of the Christian calendar and reminds us of Christ’s coming to us in the past, present, and future. In times of war and great turmoil in our world, we need to be reminded of God’s greater story to shed light on current events. The Bible illustrates the great true story of God’s arrival on earth in the Incarnation, the arrival of His own Spirit within His disciples, and the future hope of God’s final advent in the glorious marriage of heaven and earth. The Bible ends with the sure hope of a new beginning, the greatest image of new creation and cosmic renewal. Reflect on Revelation 21:1-22:5. How does this description of Jesus’ future reign speak to your deepest longings?”
