Sundays at 9:00 am in the Banquet Hall

Advent is a season of anticipating the arrival of the Messiah. We look back on the longing of the people of God, as they anticipated the first arrival of Jesus. We also look forward, as the people of God, to the second arrival of Jesus. 

In Sunday School throughout this Advent season, we are going to consider the significance of the arrival of Jesus by looking at Jesus as a son. Luke 3:23–38 records Jesus’ genealogy and in it we see many names, but there are four that stand out especially. Jesus descended from Adam, the first man. He also descended from Abraham, the father of the nation of Israel. He descended from David, the first king in the eternal dynasty God promised. And, finally, Jesus was the son of Joseph, the righteous carpenter who married Mary, the mother of Jesus. Scripture places great significance on Jesus’ genealogical and theological relationship to each of these men. So our goal this December is to explore what the Bible has to say about these connections.
