In Children's Church, we didn't get a chance to get into Advent Day 5, which is brokenness.  Paul Tripp talks about our brokenness using five words:

• Separation - Because of sin, we are separated from God
• Inability - Because of sin, we are unable to save ourselves.
• Delusion - Because of sin, we deceive ourselves.
• Judgment - Because of sin, without Christ, we are under God's judgment.
• Hopelessness - Because of sin, without Christ, we have no hope (Ephesians 2:12).

For the month of December, there will be daily posts based on Paul Tripp's Advent book Come Let Us Adore Him.
