Tonight we run our last Evening of Justice and Worship event in Kirkland, WA @7pm. We are going to talk about Advent, and how it should be a beautiful season leading up to the celebration of Jesus birth, not a season filled with consumerism and debt. We are going to be showing the Advent Conspiracy video and talking about how we can spend these next 4 weeks pressing into God, not our wallets. We are also going to sing the old familiar Christmas carol Oh Holy Night. I have only seen these lyrics in the past year, but they go perfectly with what I believe Jesus is calling us to in regards to doing justice.
Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
