The Journey to Christmas Eve

Drawing inspiration from the timeless film "It's a Wonderful Life," join us for three Sundays in December plus a special Christmas Eve service as we discover how the birth of Jesus speaks to our deepest struggles and greatest hopes.

The Crisis of Christmas — Matthew 1

The Choice of Christmas — Mark 1:1-8

The Community of Christmas — Luke 1:39-56

The Christ of Christmas — John 1:1-18

From the Series

"Your crisis is real, but Christ is greater. Your past is broken, but Christ is the Redeemer. Your present is hard, but Christ is with you. Your future is uncertain, but Christ has secured it."

"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." — John 1:5
