The Second Sunday in Advent 2021
Advent 2, 2021 - Joy, that is the Joy the Christian knows because of all that Jesus is and has done, is more than giddiness or happiness. And, this Joy is in the world wherever there are people who Love Jesus. This is what OnMission is talking about this second week in Advent.
Jesus' followers live in this world, but are not of this world. His people will feel as all people feel, they will experience what all people experience but their identity, their nature, their character, their mindset, their Joyfulness are not the product of emotions, experiences, contexts or environments … what we witness in them is their Love of Jesus - Joy inevitably and persistently flows from that Love of God.
