A Place For Tears

In the second week of Advent we light the candle of peace. But our world is not peaceful – it’s full of conflict, shattered relationships, and discord. How can we delight in peace when our world and our lives are so broken? As we continue in Advent, Preston Gordon preaches from Matthew 2.1-23. As he considers the brutal account of Herod’s atrocities, he explores why Matthew would choose to include this as he told us about Jesus coming into the world. He helps us see that God is active even in the darkest of times, and God can handle the darkness of the night.
