Welcome to Church of the City New York's Advent Devotionals. Jesus was good news in the first century, and He is still good news today. One of the most iconic passages read during the Advent season comes from Isaiah 9, where the Prophet proclaims the light has dawned for those living in darkness, a child will be born, and a son will be given, the Messiah, who will bring peace with God and with mankind by ruling on David's throne. We hope that during this season everyone listening will gain a renewed desire to walk in intimacy with Jesus and to boldly proclaim the story of God's Son to others.

This Sunday, Pastor Jon Tyson closed out our Advent series, To Us a Son is Given, with a teaching on Jesus as the Son of God and the true story of Christmas. Jesus’ life fulfilled the prophecies about the Messiah, His ministry was marked by power and the miraculous, and even His suffering on the cross revealed His divine nature. This is the cornerstone of the Christmas story, that God’s one and only Son took on flesh and came to earth to be with His people.

This Sunday, Pastor Jon Tyson continued our Advent Series with a teaching on Jesus as the Son of Man. During the Christmas season, we often tell stories of hearts changing for the better, but what does it take for a heart to truly change? In our teaching text from Matthew’s gospel, two disciples’ mother ask Jesus to grant them seats of honor in His kingdom, but Jesus disrupts their understanding of greatness, servanthood, and sacrifice by showing them the path to true greatness—through hearts that are changed through humility.

This Sunday, Pastor Suzy Silk kicked off our Advent series, “To Us a Son is Given” by calling us to reflect on two questions over the next few weeks leading up to Christmas Day: What kind of Son has been given to us? What is His name? Pastor Suzy invited us to consider one of Jesus’ prophetic names, the “Son of David,” and how it highlights Jesus’ ministry of mercy.   Click here if you would like to partner with us and give to Living the Liturgy this year.

This week, pastor Tim Brown closed out our Formed series with a message on the importance of multiplication laid out in the Great Commission (Matthew 28), in which Jesus tells His disciples to go and make more disciples, baptizing them in His name, and teaching them to obey His Word. This encompasses Jesus’ plan for His Gospel spreading on the earth, and is a call to action for all believers still today. 

This Sunday, Pastor Jon Tyson continued our Formed series with a teaching on participation, challenging us to move beyond head knowledge and into the active, daily practice of discipleship. It is only through proactive participation in our discipleship that we can overcome the massive gap between mere resonance towards teaching and active obedience. By living with intentionality—abiding with God, joining in His work, and contending for His will on earth— we can find true rest, health for our souls, and an eternal identity.   Click here if you would like to partner with us and give to Living the Liturgy this year.

This Sunday, Pastor Jon Tyson continued our Formed series with a teaching on vivification. Vivification is the process by which the Holy Spirit imparts new spiritual life to a believer, animating them with the life of Christ and empowering them to live in obedience, faith, and love. It's the positive aspect of sanctification, where the individual is not only turning away from sin (mortification) but is also being energized and renewed to live a life of righteousness and holiness. As Christians, we want to build an inner world that can handle the pressure of anything happening in the outer world.
