This three-week series is designed to help us reflect on the value of waiting as we wait for and anticipate celebrating the birth of Jesus this Christmas season.    For this first week, we’re asking the question, “What is patience?”   To explore this question, we’ll dig into several Scripture verses that describe patience.    Then we’ll explore how patience gets lived out in the Old Testament character, Joseph.   The goal of this study is that we would understand God’s perspective of patience and would desire to grow this key character trait in our lives.
