What is Advent?

Advent is the time of year when the Church anticipates the coming holiday in celebration of Jesus’s first arrival as a baby, and the still-to-come final arrival of Jesus as the Triumphal and Victorious King over sin and death.

How to Observe Advent

Observing Advent involves practices that cultivate expectant and patient waiting. By observing Advent, your focus will be less on the busyness of the season and more on the true and free gift of Christmas—Jesus.

Advent Sermon Series: Peace on Earth

How do we receive and experience peace through Jesus and his incarnation? It is a promise that he would bring peace, but are we to experience this peace when the world feels unsafe?

Nov 30: The Hardest Place for Peace, Proverbs 4:23
Dec 7: Peace for Misfit Toys, Luke 2:8-14
Dec 14: No DIY Peace, Romans 5:1-2
Dec 21: A Different Peace, John 14:25-27

Jesus invites his followers to live out our belief in safe places where we can be known, welcomed, and loved. Community Groups are a great way to do this during the week. Our Community Groups meet in homes across Franklin to build relationships and discuss the Bible passage from the current sermon series.
