Expectant Hope: Real Life in the Waiting

Tuesday, December 1, 2026 - 6:00-8:00 pm CT

A Here for You Advent Celebration

We spend a lot of our lives waiting, don’t we? We wait for answers; we wait for circumstances to change; or we wait for something we hope will happen. Whatever we’re waiting for, Advent reminds us that our hope reaches beyond our circumstances. Jesus came once as promised, and because of that, we know that His promised return is just as sure.

So how should that hope shape the way we live today? We’d love for you to join us for our second annual Here for You Advent Celebration! We’ll spend the evening together in God’s Word, raise our voices in worship with our special musical guests, Gina, Sadie, and Calia, and encourage one another as we consider what it means to live with expectant hope in the waiting of our everyday lives. We’ll have fun together, too—with opportunities to interact, a few giveaways, and maybe even a surprise or two! It is a celebration after all!

There are three ways to join us this year!

In Person: Come celebrate with us in Franklin, Tennessee! (Registration required; limited to 30 guests.)

Online: Tune in from wherever you are.

Host a Gathering: Invite friends, family, or your small group to join you and participate together online!

As a special gift, we’ll also have some free downloadable resources to encourage and help equip you throughout the season, including our The Voices of Christmas Advent devotional.

No matter how you choose to participate, we’d love for you to be part of the evening!
