A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him– the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD
Isaiah 11:1-2

When God Comes Down
This Sunday we begin a series of five lessons as an Advent Study. The study is entitled “When God Comes Down” and is written by James A. Harnish, who is a United Methodist pastor. The first study is led by Paul Beecham, who will introduce the whole study and present the first week’s lesson, “Zechariah and Elizabeth: Waiting for the Sunrise”.
