When injustices arise in the world, some churches speak up while others stay silent. In one of Jesus’ parables, a priest and a Levite see a man on the road who has been robbed, attacked, and left for dead. Their response is to pass by on the other side. What is the difference between them and a church that remains silent? Are they not the same? Both choose to disregard suffering and look away.

We celebrate this Advent, the birth of your son Jesus, and we also look forward to the 2nd Advent, the day when you will come again to make all things right, and to complete your Kingdom. Until then we ask for the strength of your Holy Spirit to help us to keep your commands, to live in truth, to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with you.
All of us are invited, even called, by God to make Jesus our hope. None of us are more worthy or less worthy to encounter God today. There’s no chart with God that puts some of us closer and some of us farther away. We’re all on the same ground. So, whoever you are, wherever you’ve been, welcome. God’s Spirit is here. Let’s meet him.
Today is the second Sunday of the Christian season of Advent. Advent means “coming” or “arrival.” We celebrate two advents of Christ during this season – and, really, every day.

Beacons of Hope
Over the past few years, it seems that Asian Americans are experiencing a turning point in representation. Asian Americans and their experiences have been centered in movies, such as Minari, Past Lives, Crazy Rich Asians, and Everything Everywhere All at Once; in TV shows like Netflix’s series Beef; and in literature, such as Crying in H-Mart. But what impact have these movies and shows made on Asian Americans? Has the uptick in representation made a difference? Who has and hasn’t been represented? And how might shifts in representation inform Asian American Christians specifically?
