Passion

SCRIPTURE: Malachi 3:1-4; Luke 3:1-6 (NRSVue)
 
The message of God’s salvation is like a refiner’s fire or fullers’ soap, cleansing us of our impurities. While the advent of the Messiah is marked with hopeful expectation, preparing for this arrival places demands on our lives. With words that confront our complacency, John the Baptist warns us to repent and amend our ways. Christ is coming, bringing hope, eagerness, and anticipation. But Christ’s coming is also like a refiner’s fire and fuller’s soap, which should give us pause and fill us with trepidation.

Presence

SCRIPTURE: Isaiah 12:2-6; Luke 3:7-18 (NRSVue)
 
On this third Sunday of Advent, joy is prevalent throughout our scriptures. Isaiah proclaims trust in God, which is a great reason to sing God’s praises. The story from Luke brings us the word of warning: be generous with those in need and be fair in our dealings with others. There is one coming who is greater than John and who has the power to draw us into the ways of God.
