Today is the first Sunday of Advent, when we light the Hope candle. Our worship series for this Advent season is “Christmas Through the Lens of Hollywood”. In addition to entertaining us, movies can have the ability to touch our hearts. We’ll reflect on how the traditional themes of Advent (Hope, Peace, Joy, Love) are viewed through the lens of some of Hollywood’s favorite Christmas movies. The story of George Bailey as told in the Frank Capra classic “It’s a Wonderful Life” emphasizes Hope over despair and sadness. Rev. Ron Bartlow preaches today on “It IS A Wonderful Life” with scriptures from Isaiah 2:1-5, Romans 13:11-14, and Matthew 24:36 and 42-44.
