6 Our Advent series, Beloved, is about focusing on the greatest love story ever told, the love of God for us, His creation. God loved us so much that He sent His Son to suffer and die on our behalf. Christmas is a celebration of the beginning of that story. The Book Song of Songs captures the deep passion of those yoked in marriage, but it s also a metaphor for Jesus Christ and His bride, the church. Song of Songs 2:16 says, My beloved is mine and I am his. That is how Jesus feels about us. God is coming over the hills to reach you, to save you, to bring you home and to call you His Beloved.
