Advent 2: God's Deep Love for All of the Peoples of the World

Advent Week Two: Peace
Listen to Dr. Todd Johnson's message Advent 2: God's Deep Love for All of the Peoples of the World

Todd's shares his unique perspective on Advent, the coming of the Kingdom of God for the ongoing rescue of all of humanity. Today we mark an advent for all peoples, this calendar season in the church, we wait for, we expect and we welcome the "global Jesus". Dr. Johnson uses this time to show us a global approach to the gospel.

Hamilton Wright Mabie wrote this, "Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love. That is an activity that we can embrace together and we can welcome the global Jesus. After all, that little baby represents the hope of all peoples." The more diverse christianity is, the more new people will want to join.

Todd M. Johnson is the Eva B. and Paul E. Toms Distinguished Professor of Mission and Global Christianity, and Co-Director of the Center for the Study of Global Christianity at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Johnson is visiting Research Fellow at Boston University’s Institute for Culture, Religion and World Affairs leading a research project on international religious demography. He has published encyclopedias, atlases, databases, monographs, and scholarly articles on counting religionists around the world. In particular he has made detailed country-by-country estimates for ethno-linguistic peoples, religious diversity, Pentecostals, Sunnis and Shia’s, and other traditions within the world’s major religions.
