01/10/25
The gospel gives us faith, hope, and love, all of which proceed from Christ’s death and resurrection.
01/08/25
Be relieved, whatever has had you anxious. He is with us and about his Father’s business, which is your salvation.

12/24/24
Are you looking for rest? Is your heart cluttered? Are you searching for comfort? Just look at the King-sized bed.

Ambrose's preaching continues to ring out in churches around the world, especially during Advent when we sing his magnificent, proclamatory hymn, "Savior of the Nations, Come."
