Advent – The King Shall Come
The Church Year begins with the season of Advent, which means “coming.” When someone is coming over, what do you do?
It depends on who is coming and why they are coming. If it’s a good friend popping in for a quick visit, you don’t worry too much about how the house looks or serving a meal. But imagine the governor is coming over for an evening to give you some sort of citizen’s award. That’s a big deal. There is work to be done: deep cleaning, planning a menu, getting the yard looking its best, etc.
So, is Advent a big deal? It depends on who is coming and why they are coming. In this worship series, we get the answer to those questions. We see that the King shall come. We see why the King came on that first Christmas and why he shall come again on judgment day.
In this season, we also cherish the way our King comes to us today in Word and sacrament, establishing his reign in our hearts.
