The Christmas Story
SERIES OVERVIEW
This Christmas, we’re diving into the heart of the Christmas Story through four powerful messages that speak to the journey of faith, the challenges of waiting, and the hope that Jesus brings to all. Each week, we’ll explore different aspects of the Christmas narrative, discovering how the stories of those involved in the first Christmas still speak to our lives today. Whether you're in a season of waiting, growing, seeking, or belonging, the Christmas story is for you. Let’s journey together and experience the wonder of His presence.
Faithful & Forgotten
Dec. 1st
Zachariah and Elizabeth’s story is one of faithfulness in the face of silence. They had faithfully followed God, but their prayers for a child went unanswered for years. This message explores what it feels like when we’ve done everything right and yet God seems silent. How do we wait on God when we feel forgotten or overlooked?
Familiar
Dec. 8th
Even Mary, who was intimately familiar with Jesus, had to grow in understanding who He truly was. This message challenges all of us—there is always more to learn about His nature, His mission, and what He’s calling us to. No matter how long we’ve known Him, there’s still room to grow.
Far & Away
Dec. 15th
The magi traveled a great distance to find Jesus, offering their gifts in worship. But what do we withhold from God when we finally encounter Him? This message explores the journey of faith, the distance we sometimes travel to find Jesus, and the decision to surrender what God truly wants: our hearts and lives.
Forever Home
Dec. 22nd
The birth of Jesus was the announcement of God’s eternal love for everyone. The shepherds, the wise men, Mary and Joseph—all were invited into the story of redemption. The message of Christmas is that God’s "Forever Home" includes everyone: those who are near, those who feel far, and those who, like the faithful, may sometimes feel forgotten. Everyone has a place in His family.
