The Ache for a Messiah
10/26/25 – 12/24/25
What do you do with an ache that won’t go away?
The ache for justice. For peace. For healing. For presence. For something or someone to make things right.
In this Advent series, The Ache for a Messiah, we listen to the prophets who spoke into darkness with words of impossible hope. We trace the longings of a people who waited for God to show up.
This is not a sentimental countdown to Christmas.
It is a season of naming our ache… and daring to believe it still has an answer.
This is not just a series about ancient promises.
It is about the Messiah who meets us in the waiting.
The Ache for Justice
October 26, 2025
Justice is one of the deepest longings of the human heart. In this first message from our new series, “The Ache for a Messiah,” we turn to Isaiah 9. These verses were written in a time of fear, when injustice seemed to have the final word. But into that darkness, a promise was spoken. A child would be born. A new kind of kingdom would begin. Come explore how God’s answer to injustice isn’t force or fear, but a child who carries the government on his shoulders.
