Calvary will join churches across the globe to celebrating Advent beginning tomorrow. For this season of expectation, we have decided to utilize N.T. Wright's book Simply Christian. In this book, Wright argues that there are whispers of God throughout the world. Equally powerful is the fact that our spirits long for more than this world can offer. Wright names four aspects of these promises. We seek justice but do not find it here. We long for beauty and catch only glimpses. Community beckons us but we still deal with estrangement. We long for harmony of body, mind and soul yet live in unsettling and anxious times.
Over the next four weeks, our Worship will use as a starting point each of these aspects. Join us as we await the Coming of the King.
