Description
Second Sunday in Advent
Rev. Paul Shoemaker
Even though he appears in the New Testament, John the Baptist was the last of the Old Testament (Old Covenant) prophets. He calls upon people to prepare the way of the Lord. We, too, need to prepare the
way of the Lord in our hearts and lives as we repent of our sins, receive God’s forgiveness, and walk in the
newness of life. At the end of this earthly journey, we receive the crown of glory prepared for us.
Sermon Text: Luke 3:1-20
