JOIN US FOR ADVENT AT FRONTLINE CHURCH
Advent is the liturgical season of the church that marks the longing and hope of the people of God and the expectation of God to meet us in those longings through Jesus. We engage with the Advent season as a church in several ways, starting with our Week of Prayer & Fasting.
Join us in prayer during our Advent Week of Prayer and Fasting. We will gather at each of our congregations from 12-1 PM on December 1-4. We invite you to pray with us and invite God to meet us in our longings for our church, city, and the world. For prayer prompts, consider picking up a bookmark from your congregation or using the prompts below.
You're also invited to a church-wide evening of worship and prayer Frontline Downtown on December 3 at 6:30 PM. We'll gather to pray fervently, cultivate spiritual hunger, and ask God to move in our city! There will be childcare for nursery and preschool-aged kids. We hope you'll join us.

SERMON SERIES: REPEAT THE SOUNDING JOY
Christmastime is famous for its familiar songs. People often debate whether they like Christmas music or how early it is to start playing it during the season. And yet, the truth is, what we observe in the Advent season, and what God offers to us in Jesus at Christmas, is worth singing about. It’s no wonder the famous Christmas hymn has the lyric, “Repeat the sounding joy.” This Advent season, we will work through the first two chapters of Luke’s Gospel. Bring a friend and join us during the four weeks of Advent.
USE OUR ADVENT JOURNAL
This season, we want to invite you and your family to journey through four weeks of Advent with our Advent Journal. In it, you’ll find a week of prayer and fasting guide, a weekly liturgy, and a family worship guide that starts with the first Sunday of Advent and concludes with a Christmas blessing.
THE CRADLE
The Cradle was created for the Advent season. It is composed of ancient and new songs and prayers that convey longing and desire for our coming Savior. Join us in singing songs of praise and celebration as we acknowledge that God the Father has come near to us by sending His Son, Jesus.
