On Christ the King Sunday, we explore how Jesus redefines kingship — not as power over others, but as a loving presence that meets us right where we are.

Before we dive into Advent and prepare for the coming of Christ, Christ the King Sunday invites us to pause and remember who it is we are preparing for — a king unlike any other.
Christmas is just around the corner! Advent starts a new season and new year for the Christian Church next week. Today we see Jesus as the ‘King of the Jews’ on a Cross, from which He still speaks words of forgiveness and grace to those who were mocking Him, all could hear. Jesus had qualities very<br /> different to earthly kings.

God invites us into deep relationship that is not based on being rich, having all the earthly needs we require or being, good enough. To follow Jesus we have to see ourselves differently – die to our old selves and be born to a new life. A new life of generosity, trust in God, free from things that hold us back to simply receive the inheritance of love and grace on offer.
