TIETOJA TÄSTÄ JAKSOSTA
When we look back at the glory of the past or forward to an impossible ideal, it’s easy to feel like we've fallen short, much like the people rebuilding the Temple in Haggai's time. In this sermon, we reflect on this "small temple problem"—our collective failure to achieve lasting peace—as we observe Peace Sunday ahead of Remembrance Day.
We explore atonement as not just saying "sorry," but as a commitment to live like we mean it, working for peace despite systemic violence. We find our strength in God's assurance: "Be strong... and work, for I am with you."
Scripture Reading: Haggai 1:15b-2:9

Advent is a season of hopeful tension, embracing the idea that God's new world is both Already here (seen in moments of grace and peace, like Jerusalem's relief from Assyria) and Not Yet fully realized.
