Advent Feast of The Table: What do you fear?

**Please note our adjusted meeting time of 5:00 PM instead of 5:30 PM**
For the season of Advent we are making use of "What do you fear? Insisting on Hope this Advent" - a resource created and shared by A Sanctified Art.

Luke's gospel begins the story of Jesus with this opening line: "In the time of Herod..." This detail may seem minor to modern readers; however, it reveals layers of information about the fearful world Jesus entered, one filled with rampant oppression, economic disparity, uncertainty, and instability. A world not so unlike our own. And yet, throughout the stories of Christ's birth, we hear the whispers of angels delivering a surprising message: "Do not fear." When we find ourselves in fearful times, can we acknowledge our fears while also insisting on hope?

This Sunday we will consider how we long for God to break into this "time of Herod", discussing our deep yearnings and how God hears and holds them for us.
