Of Snakes & Joy
Pastor Zach Lovig
“John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him,
“You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming
wrath?  Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not
begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For
I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for
Abraham.  The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every
tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown
into the fire.”
Luke 3:7-18

How Do You Prepare?
Pastor Kari Jacott
“I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me.
Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple;
the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come,” says
the Lord Almighty. But who can endure the day of his coming? Who
can stand when he appears? For he will be like a refiner’s fire or a
launderer’s soap. He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he will
purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver. Then the Lord
will have men who will bring offerings in righteousness,  and the
offerings of Judah and Jerusalem will be acceptable to the Lord,
as in days gone by, as in former years.”
Malachi 3:1-4

Letting go of Old Hope
Pastor Kari Jacott
“‘The days are coming,’ declares the Lord, ‘when I will fulfill the good promise I made to the people of Israel and Judah.
“‘In those days and at that time
    I will make a righteous Branch sprout from David’s line;
    he will do what is just and right in the land.
 In those days Judah will be saved
    and Jerusalem will live in safety.
This is the name by which it will be called:
    The Lord Our Righteous Savior.’”
Jeremiah 33:14-16
