Sermon: Prepare the Way
Date: January 4, 2026
Scripture: Matthew 3
Speaker: George Veith
In Matthew 3 we meet Jesus’ cousin, John the Baptist. John the Baptist’s role was to prepare the way for Jesus. He was the embodiment of Isaiah’s vision of a “voice calling in the desert to prepare the way of the Lord”. (Is 40:3) John called the people of Israel to repentance and enacted this through baptism. The Church has a role that is similar to John’s. Just as he prepared the way for Christ 2000 years ago, we too are to prepare our lives to encounter Jesus, both now, and in expectation of his second coming. We are to live today as though Jesus is coming back at any time. We don’t live the way the world lives. We are a part of a revolution. We invest in the Kingdom. We revolt against the status quo. We work to bring about the Kingdom on Earth as it is in heaven. And as we do this, we hasten the Lord’s return. On this first Sunday of 2026, what might it mean to prepare the way of the Lord in our own lives?
Desired Outcome: To encourage folks to examine their lives as we head into 2026—and ask how they might prepare the way to encounter Jesus this year.
