This Christmas series will begin on Sunday, December 4th, and conclude with
our Christmas Eve services on December 23 & 24.
You’ve heard the story…Or at least some part of it. It’s simple, really. The imperfect World was in need of a savior… and God sent us one. He came as a baby, born to a virgin,
and was delivered in a stable.
An angel brought shepherds to see him, and a star brought kings to shower him with gifts. And in that very moment in time, the World was given a gift.
Hope came to humanity as one of our very own.
​
Salvation was ours and mercy was its message. But today, sometimes that gift of hope feels like a distant thought, left in the dirt and straw of the manger. We put up the nativities and we go through the motions of traditions passed on through the ages.
​
But perhaps our hearts have forgotten that the meaning goes so far beyond this short season. Maybe there’s more to Christmas… if we take a second look.
