Listen "First Sunday of Advent 2025 - Rev. William H. Lamar IV"
Episode Synopsis
This week Rev. William H. Lamar IV explores the themes of Advent, the uncertainty of the coming of the Lord, and the importance of staying awake and prepared for God's presence in our lives. He emphasizes that Advent is not merely a preparation for Christmas but a time to recognize the continuous coming of the Son of Man. Rev. Lamar highlights the interruptions God brings into our lives, the necessity of being ready for both joy and pain, and the assurance that God will always come to us, even in our darkest moments.This week's text Matthew 24:36-4436 “But about that day and hour no one knows, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 For as the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For as in the days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark, 39 and they knew nothing until the flood came and swept them all away, so, too, will be the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Then two will be in the field; one will be taken, and one will be left. 41 Two women will be grinding meal together; one will be taken, and one will be left. 42 Keep awake, therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. 43 But understand this: if the owner of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.Chapters00:00 Scripture Reading: The Coming of the Lord01:56 The Call to Be Ready08:47 God's Interruptions in Our Lives15:46 Witnessing the Coming of the Lord
