Listen "Advent week 1: hope"
Episode Synopsis
In this Advent message, AJ revisits a season many of us enjoyed growing up without fully understanding. She explains how Advent is more than candles and carols. It is a four week invitation to remember that Jesus arrived and that He will arrive again.AJ shares the origins of Advent, the meaning behind its candles, and the history that shaped the tradition. She also speaks honestly about the tension many people feel heading into Christmas. Hope and joy often sit right beside grief, disappointment, and unanswered questions. Instead of using Scripture to avoid how we feel, she shows how God meets us in the middle of all of it.Drawing from Isaiah, Romans, and even the staggering math behind fulfilled prophecy, AJ reminds us that our hope is anchored in someone steady, intentional, and faithful. As Advent begins, she invites us to step toward hope again by trusting the One who holds every promise.If you are entering the season carrying expectation, loss, gratitude, or a mix of everything, this conversation will help you breathe, refocus, and rediscover why hope does not disappoint.Send us a text!
