Holy Expectation

MOODY RADIO
About this episode

Today, on Karl and Crew, we discussed having Holy expectations this Christmas season. As Christ believers, we celebrate two Advents. The first rejoices in the Savior’s birth. The second remembers that Jesus is coming again! Our special guests included Dr. John Koessler and Susie Larson. Dr. Koessler is a retired Moody Professor, author, and contributing editor for the free daily devotional, "Today in the Word." His special study for December will help you look forward not only to Christmas but to the hope we have in Christ's return. Susie Larson is a national speaker, best-selling author, and radio host. She shared her heart on really leaning into the advent of the Christmas season: Christ is our greatest gift today and to come! Hear the highlights of today's program on the showcast.
