1. Advent is something of a liturgical speed bump that slows us down lest we rush to Christmas but forget that the baby born in Bethlehem will return with glory and power to judge the living and the dead.
  2. The time is always near. The world rages on and in it you have tribulation, it is true. But the One who is standing at the gate has conquered.
  3. Preaching in the autumn of the Church Year reminds us that in the midst of death there is life, for the crucified King has been raised from the grave and all who trust in Him will live with Him in a kingdom which has no end.
  4. Confident in the good and gracious will of God revealed not by reason but by Christ, Christians are free for the vocation of citizenship without nationalistic idolatry.
  5. Like the Apostle Paul, Thielicke’s preaching extols the truth that in life and in death, we belong to the Lord.
