ADVENT

This Christmas Season at Glenbrook Baptist Church, we are utilising the Advent Christian tradition. Advent is a Christian season of preparation and hopeful anticipation for Christmas. It traditionally begins four or so weeks before Christmas Day. The name comes from the Latin word ‘adventus’ meaning ‘coming’ or ‘arrival’, and it commemorates the birth of Jesus while also looking forward to His return.
Advent is a time for spiritual and practical preparation for Christmas. Christians prepare for this season through prayer, and reflection on themes such as light, hope, peace, joy, and love.
It is a time to remember Jesus’ birth and anticipate His return and the and the complete restoration of God’s Kingdom. The season emphasizes waiting and longing for the arrival of the Messiah, both in His first coming and His return.
This series has a focus on God’s Kingdom because it reminds us of the hope, joy, peace, love and life that we have because Jesus is King.
We will explore some of these themes as we consider the true meaning of Christmas.
