  <itunes:subtitle>Why do we long for Christmas? Why do we look forward to the holiday, every year? We have turned the season into a celebration of family and togetherness, of gifts and nostalgia, of anxiety and family conflict. But the reality of Christmas goes much deeper, because our longing for Christmas is really our longing for someone to bring us home, to tell us we belong, to speak blessing over us, and to make things right. This year’s Advent series shows us how Christmas fulfills four of our deepest desires: for blessing, belonging, justice, and home.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Even though we’re home, we belong, we’re blessed, we’re not yet to our final home, to the world as it should be. While we wait for Jesus' return, we serve the king and his kingdom now, moving out from our home of belonging and blessing to work for justice and righteousness around us. Join us as we look at "Harmony" from Luke 1:67-79.

  <description>Every gift guide, every advertisement, and every wish list all work off the same principle: if only someone would give me some thing that perfectly met my deepest desires, then I’d be happy. I’d be at peace. We all long for blessing—and if we don’t find it in Jesus, we’ll look for it in stuff. But ultimate blessing is found in the home we’re longing for! Join us for “Longing for Blessing” as we open up Galatians 3:13-14 and Ephesians 1:3 to catch a glimpse of the blessing God has promised us.

  <description>Everyone longs to belong, not just in a social club or friend group, but to a place that feels like family and home. In the Old Testament, God made a promise to Abraham and his descendants that they would belong to him as his people, but over time and many years of disobedience, the Israelites walked away from God over and over again. We all fear losing the places we belong to, and thankfully in Jesus, we have the assurance that we belong to Him and we will never be cast out. Join us as we hear Pastor Nathan share with us from Hosea and 1 Peter about our true longing for belonging!
