In Luke's account of the birth of Christ, an angelic herald proclaims to a group of shepherds "good news of great joy for all people." ECV exists to call all people to revolutionary lives of action through Spirit-empowered communities that love and obey Jesus Christ in all things. This week, we will consider this "all people" aspect of what it means to follow Jesus, and how it challenges us to live vulnerably, availably, and courageously to love and engage with people very different from ourselves as a way of life, that all people might also know and obey Jesus, too.
- Series Description -
During Advent this year, we join believers around the world as we seek to quiet and reorient ourselves to Jesus in this often busy and fragmented season. And as we both celebrate his first coming and expectantly await his return, we seek to savor and reflect his light, enter into his joy even in our pain, and lift our eyes to the world for whose sake he came.
