NOTES First Sunday is Hope. Our hope houses our expectations. During this first Sunday of Advent we will turn to hear John the Baptist as he works to rally us up and get our hearts and our world ready for the Messiah that we all expect. John preaches a message to get ready, and prepare the way for the coming of the Lord. The Romans text will be our preaching text, and like John's message it reminds us to wake, the days has come, prepare to receive the salvation that God has prepared for you.
