Advent 2026: Waiting in Hope
Waiting in Hope
A four-week journey through the candles of Advent — Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love — preparing our hearts for the coming of Christ.
Nov 29 – Dec 24, 2026
The Plan
Week 1 — Hope (Nov 29 – Dec 5)
Read: Isaiah 9:2; Romans 15:12-13
Light the first candle. Name one longing you are carrying into this season. Pray simply: “Come, Lord Jesus.”
Week 2 — Peace (Dec 6 – Dec 12)
Read: Isaiah 11:1-9; John 14:27
Where is God inviting you to make peace? Practice a daily five minutes of silence before Him.
Week 3 — Joy (Dec 13 – Dec 19)
Read: Luke 1:46-55; Philippians 4:4
Write down three reasons for joy each day. Share one with someone who needs it.
Week 4 — Love (Dec 20 – Dec 24)
Read: John 3:16; 1 John 4:9-10
Act on love: visit, call, give, forgive. On Christmas Eve, read Luke 2 aloud and worship.
