Welcome home to Red Letter Advent, where we are unboxing the four gifts of hope, peace, joy, and the love of Jesus. Last week, we heard Jesus say that the PEACE he came to give us is not like what most people think peace should be about. That’s also true of JOY – especially at this time of year!

So, welcome back to Red Letter Advent, and the gift of JOY!
