Sermon for December 8, 2019 - Second Sunday in Advent - In his foretelling of the coming of the Messiah, the prophet Isaiah proclaims, “A green shoot will sprout from Jesse’s stump, from his roots a budding branch.” (Isaiah 11:1, The Message) This prophetic image proclaims that life is about to spring forth from dormancy and death. This hope gives a perspective from which to view the threats and worries of life. Those things are never the last word. Our hope is anchored in Jesus, the green shoot from the stump of Jesse!Scripture Lessons: Isaiah 11:1-10 and Romans 15:4-13Support the show (https://secure.accessacs.com/access/oglogin.aspx?sn=112595&f=107)
