Pastor Byron opens with a quick look at the history of Advent and explains why, even though Baptists have not traditionally observed it, the themes it highlights are firmly rooted in Scripture and central to our faith. From there he unpacks Romans 15:13 and shows how real hope, joy, and peace come from God Himself and grow through the power of the Holy Ghost. The message walks through biblical examples of people who trusted God in every season and calls believers to live with a steady, Spirit-filled hope that overflows into daily life.
