Peace and Goodwill
We light the Shepherds candle and celebration joy on the third week of Advent. We light the angels candle on the fourth Sunday in Advent and the theme is peace. “Peace on earth, goodwill toward men” was their proclamation.

Christ Came to Save Sinners
Context is important. We have to be careful when witnessing – or for that matter with one another – that there are sinners and there are sinners saved by grace.
