Sermons

In our previous Advent sermons we've seen how God's intention does not seem to be an abandonment of His creation, but rather a cleansing and a redemption of it. We see clues that it will be the same with our work, cultures, kingdoms and heritages. God clearly loves creativity and variety and the Bible seems to indicate that Heaven will be a place of many languages (united by a single Heavenly tongue) and cultures, as well as opportunities to pursue joyful, life-giving work. All things will be subject to His perfect will and will operate only for His glory and our good, including any memories we have of this current life. As we sing about each year at Christmas, sin and sorrows will no longer grow, and thorns will no longer infest the ground. Wherever the curse is currently found it will be replaced by His blessing and we will live, work, interact, explore, discover and rest in the shadow of His love. This is good news!
