Advent 2016 Just Christmas – Part 1 – Hope (A Thief, a Desert, and a Manger)

11/27/2016 – Advent 2016 Just Christmas – Part 1 – A Thief, a Desert, and a Manger

Matthew 24:42-44; Mark 1:4-8; Luke 2:6-7. A thief in the night. A wild-man in the desert. And a manger in a stable. These are three very curious ways to speak of Christ’s Advent – the arrival of hope.
