In this season of Advent as we look forward to the celebration of our Lord’s coming and revel in the anticipation of his return, I want to remind you all, my friends, to rejoice! We are all sojourners on different journeys, and we move through different terrains of the spirit (some call these seasons of the spirit), but in every season Emmanuel: God is with us. Thus, in every season we have hope! Although, we are on different journeys, our destination is the same and so is our confession. Rejoice, my friends!
