Fig Leaves

This Sunday, November 28, in Messiah’s Contemporary Advent worship service at 11am, there is an original hymn based on Luke 21: 25 - 36 which is the Gospel reading. The hymn focuses on verses 29 - 31 which states:

“ Then he told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees; as soon as they sprout leaves you can see for yourselves and know that summer is already near. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.”
