Last week we finished our Discovering Character series. I am always curious to know your takeaway from the series. How has God been working in your life? This is beneficial in a couple of ways:
- It gives testimony to God’s work
- It helps you to process what you are leaning
- It gives the staff good feedback on what is hitting home with you, helping us plan future sermon series.
We are fully engaged in the Christmas season and it is our goal to focus in on Jesus. We want to clear away all that distracts us from our savior. We are often focused this season on gifts, shopping, decorations, food, parties and the like. We are also faced with the sadness or pain of tough stuff occurring in our families. Let's shift into the simplicity of Christmas by looking at God’s love, hope and peace. If one of the reasons for Jesus coming to earth was to show us what God the Father is like, what do we learn about Him in this first Christmas?
Join us this Christmas season as we dig into what the angels declared to the shepherds on the night our Savior was born.
But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.”
Luke 2:10-14 (NIV1984)
See you Sunday,
Alex
