Are You Living in Expectation of Christ?

Advent is a season of hope and expectation, a time to prepare your heart for the coming of Christ. It’s a reminder that the world isn’t as it should be, but God’s promises bring hope. Waiting is never easy, but when you look to Christ with expectation, your heart begins to rest in His timing and His faithfulness.

Today, slow down and prepare your heart for the coming of the Savior. Let go of distractions, and focus on the hope and joy He brings. Live with the kind of expectation that shapes your days with hope, knowing that the One who came is also the One who will come again.

"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth."
— John 1:14

Brief Biographical Summary

Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906–1945) was a German pastor and theologian who stood firmly against the Nazi regime. His writings, including The Cost of Discipleship, continue to inspire Christians to live boldly for Christ, even in the face of suffering.

Fun fact: Bonhoeffer was imprisoned and eventually martyred for his opposition to Hitler, but his prison writings, including Letters and Papers from Prison, have impacted countless readers worldwide.
