Twinkies with God (5 PM)

    Most of us have heard the story of Jesus' birth so many times, it can start to feel almost ordinary. But the Christmas story is far from ordinary! Join us as we consider the ways God uses--even chooses--the most ordinary of people, places and things to birth something extraordinary: the gift of salvation. And though the true meaning of Christmas starts with receiving the incomparable gift of the Christ, it comes full circle when we share the gift with others.

    The weeks leading up to Christmas remind us that we are journeying toward a new way of being. We look back and celebrate Jesus’ birth while also looking forward, knowing there is more to come. Too often, however, we plow through December cleaning and decorating our homes, squeezing in Amazon orders during lunch, standing in lines and spending dollar after dollar after dollar…. It’s not uncommon for us to get overwhelmed, fall into a season of grief, get into an argument with a family member or even wish it was all over. This isn’t what God has in mind for our lives or for our celebration of Christ’s birth. God wants more for us and God wants more from us. Join us for a new sermon series, Unwrap the True Meaning of Christmas, and together we’ll explore what Christmas really is all about.
