ADVENT 2013: Reflection for Christmas Eve, December 24
The Meaning of Christmas
Welcome to Peace Church, a place where we come together as a community to celebrate the spirit of Christmas. On this special day, December 24, our church offers a unique reflection on Advent 2013, enabling you to truly grasp the essence and significance of this joyous season.
Reflection on Advent 2013
As the year comes to a close, and Christmas approaches, it is the perfect time for reflection. At Peace Church, we believe that Advent is a profound period that allows us to prepare our hearts and minds for the birth of Jesus Christ. Our Advent 2013 reflection offers you an opportunity to delve deeper into the true meaning of this sacred time, through thought-provoking insights and inspiring teachings.
Embracing Hope and Joy
During Advent, we focus on the themes of hope, joy, peace, and love. Through our Christmas Eve reflection, we explore the first two of these themes, hope and joy. Hope is the anticipation of something better, the belief that God's promises will be fulfilled. Joy, on the other hand, is the deep sense of happiness and contentment that comes from knowing that our Savior, Jesus Christ, was born to bring salvation and eternal life.
Finding Hope
In a world often plagued by uncertainty and despair, finding hope can be challenging. However, Advent reminds us that hope is not a mere wishful thinking but a confident expectation in God's faithfulness. Our reflection for Christmas Eve will explore the different aspects of hope, guiding you through passages from the Bible and offering relevant examples from everyday life. Together, we will rediscover the power of hope and its significance in times of darkness.
Embracing Joy
Joy is an essential aspect of the Christmas spirit. It is the profound happiness that overflows within us when we embrace the love and grace of God. Our reflection will delve into the concept of joy, exploring how it transcends circumstances and is not dependent on external factors. By exploring inspiring stories and scriptural teachings, we aim to deepen your understanding of joy and help you experience it in its purest form this Christmas season.
