First Sunday in Advent: Advent and the Prophets

Dec 1, 2024    James Madden

James unpacks Zechariah 14 and the prophet's apocalyptic call for a future day of the Lord. Unpacking Zechariah's surreal imagery, James shares an insight from Fleming Rutledge to describe God's activity in Advent: "God is the subject of the verb." Our response is to flee into his valley of refuge, embracing the surreal nature of disorientation, while looking for the light of Christ.
