Angels: God's Messengers of Comfort and Joy
What comes to mind when you hear the words “angel,” “halo,” or “wings”? What about celestial beings descending from the sky? What if there’s more to angels than the ornaments we hang on our trees? The word angel means messenger. They’re mentioned hundreds of times in scripture. They bring messages of comfort, peace and joy. And who doesn’t need more of this today? Sometimes, the Bible says, when we welcome strangers, we welcome angels without knowing it. Join us this Advent, for a five-week journey as we discover the Angels found in scripture and the role they might just play among us today.

Become a Small Group Leader
As your Christian journey unfolds, we hope to see you respond to God’s calling in your life—to disciple others. A meaningful way for you to do this is by leading a small group. Being a group leader doesn’t mean bearing a heavy burden. In truth, think of it more as being a group facilitator. Discipling others doesn’t demand that you have everything perfectly figured out; it simply means you’re saying “yes” to helping others grow in their faith. To learn more about how you can become a small group leader, click the button below.
Joy in Serving
Throughout this Advent season there are many opportunities for you to be Angels — God’s messengers of comfort and joy — to those in need. Join us in spreading God’s message of love and compassion through Joy in Serving. Whether it’s supporting families in Kansas City or reaching out to those abroad, your kindness can make a meaningful impact.
