Sermon, 3rd Sunday in Advent, 2025
During Advent, we are considering our preparations for Christ’s coming. We think about His First Advent, and then we ask how we are to prepare for His Second. This morning we discuss the role of the Church in our preparation, and particularly, the role of the ministers of the Church. God grant them the grace to effectively preach the True Word of God. God grant grace to the people of God to receive the Word with true affection, hearing and doing what is duly preached.
