Waiting Here for You: An Advent Journey of Hope by Louie Giglio

God Works While We Wait

Waiting Here For You helps us anticipate rather than dread the busy season of Advent and Christmas. A season overflowing with anticipation, Christmas comes the same time each year with great hope and promise of a baby born long ago. But, this season meant for joy is often consumed by busyness, pressure, mixed emotions, and is gone as quickly as it came. What is it all for In the journey of Advent - a season of expectant waiting and preparation - we find our answer. It's in the waiting season of Advent that we prepare our hearts to meet December 25 with joy, peace, hope, and promise in our newborn King.

In the new 2020 edition of Waiting Here For You, pastor and author Louie Giglio invites you into an Advent journey of hope to discover that waiting is not wasting when you're waiting on the Lord. Take hold of the chance to uncover the vast hope offered through the season of Advent and find peace and encouragement as anticipation leads toward celebration!
