SERMON SERIES:
GOD WITH US
This Sunday (12/11):
"The Kindness of Christmas"
Scripture: Luke 2:4-7
This Sunday, the Christmas story teaches us that when God shows up, love shows up! In a small, remote village called Bethlehem Mary gave birth to a boy that would be the hope for the world. Now, as we celebrate his birth, we're reminded that God is love and, therefore, if we are to be "Jesus people", our lives should be marked by this same love and kindness. This Sunday, let's take a look at the love and kindness of God in Jesus and how, through the church, this love and kindness might change the world! -
