Advent is the season Christians use to pause, ponder, and prepare for Christmas. The birth of Jesus Christ is more than just a story, it is the fulfillment of a promise that holds life transforming potential and world wide redemption."Advent, then, is a time for us to repent and believe. Knowing that Jesus was born to forgive our sins, we repent (admit our failures to God) and believe that we are forgiven because of the death and resurrection of Jesus on our behalf. Also, knowing that Jesus is coming back, we repent and believe that when He returns, He will give us eternal life."
