The story of Christmas captures our attention every Advent season. Jesus’ birth marks a glorious moment in history. But the story of Christmas is not an isolated event. The story begins at creation and points to new creation. And the beauty of Advent reminds us that from the beginning, in our failure, through our process, to new life, God has always been present with us.

The themes of doubt and despair find expression in the questions of the prophet Habakkuk. Standing as an advocate between humanity and God, Habakkuk gives voices to some of the questions that we are afraid to even whisper in the dark. But God is not afraid of these questions, He is not afraid of our past, present, or future. Instead, we are encouraged to embrace a hope that is lived in faith in Hi...

A question that has long haunted humanity is the existence of evil. As Habukkuk turns to question the Lord again, he cannot understand why the wicked prosper, why evil bears fruit. In Habakkuk’s questions we find our questions and in turn, embrace a God who confronts evil and who one day overcome all evil once and for all.

Paul address the hostile crowd in Jerusalem by once again sharing his story. We each have a story to tell, and Paul continues to tell his story with God as the main character. May we tell our stories to the glory of God and that more may know the goodness of Him.

As Paul finds himself in more and more danger wherever he goes, he heads back to Jerusalem, ready to face prison or even death. This would be the beginning of a series of trials that would mark the final steps of Paul's journey as he reaches to the end of the Earth, as he makes his way to Rome. Obstinate in the face of opposition, Paul continues to make much of Jesus whatever the cost may be.
