God Prepares Us

A sermon for the first Sunday of Advent at Oxford Baptist Church. Advent reminds us about the gap between what is and what will be. What happened is not yet what will happen either. Advent helps us with that as it shows our need to fill in the gap between what is and what will be. Christians fill that gap with faith. Oh, sometimes it is anxiety, frustration, disappointment, trauma, or even busyness, but what we are called most to is to fill in the gaps with faith.
