The Angels of Advent

Getting a message from a person of authority can be a scary thing. Whether it’s a fine notice from the police, a summons for jury duty, or the bank knocking back a mortgage proposal, it never feels good to open a letter from people of power and influence.

This Advent season, we’ll going to hear about some messages from angels, messengers from God. For many, a visit from an angel was a scary thing. To counter this, the angels started their message with “Do not be afraid”, or “Fear not” in older translations. They didn’t want their hearers to be scared, because they had good news to share.

What was good news then is still good news now. Come and join us as we see what good news there is for us even now.
