Be sure to worship with the people of God near you tomorrow. There, with others, you will receive the forgiveness of your sins, the assurance of new life in Jesus, and the gifts of repentance and faith to receive these things.

I’ve cleaned up grammar in this sermon for tomorrow, the First Sunday of Advent. (I wrote it originally on my cell phone on the road.) If you’re desperate, you may use it tomorrow.

It’s heartbreaking, whatever one’s politics.
A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

Father in heaven, in Jesus’ name, expel Putin’s forces from Ukraine, give peace, healing, and comfort to Russians and Ukrainians, end Putin’s murderous rule, and bring Putin to justice for his murders and other crimes even as you give him repentance and faith in Christ. Amen

As a pastor, I don’t talk about politics. But I do talk about justice. It is unjust to speak of peace in Ukraine that doesn’t begin with a withdrawal of 100% of Vladimir Putin’s forces from Ukraine, including territory invaded in 2014.
