The Hope of the Messiah
Good morning, One Hope!…It is an honor to be with you today sharing the “Hope” we have in the birth of the baby Jesus! At first, I didn’t realize the message matched your name, but…we’ll just go for it!!
Today, I want to share with you what I believe “Real Hope” is and how it differs from “Happiness”…major, major difference! This world is searching for “Happiness” and it’s just a fleeting, short-termed thing.
My prayer for you today, is that all you hear this morning is the Holy Spirit – through song, scripture, and the message. God’s gift to us this Advent Season is the “Hope” of the coming Christ…WOW! True “Hope”…True “JOY”…here we go…
In Christ

Key Scripture: Hebrews 10:19-24
A Call to Persevere in Faith
19 Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, 21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hopewe profess, for he who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds,
