Family Show 12/2/2022 - It’s All About His Love

Do you ever ask yourself, “Where’s the hope in this world?” “Where’s the joy in this world?”  “Where’s the peace in this world?”  Do you ever answer, “There’s only that which comes from being loved by God”?  Did you ever notice that in the glow of every Advent candle must be the love of God?  If you’re committed to using this Advent to prepare yourself to greet Jesus with love, then pull up a chair and ride out this journey with Eleanor, Brenda, and Randy as they confront the notion that you don’t know God until you know you are loved by God.
