Christmas can feel familiar. Almost too familiar. We know the songs, the story, and the traditions. And if we're not careful, that familiarity can slowly turn into boredom.

In this message from Mark 6:1–6, we see Jesus return to His hometown and be dismissed by the very people who knew Him best. They weren't rejecting Him because He lacked power. They missed Him because they thought they already knew Him.

This message reminds us that Christmas doesn't lose its power because the story isn't true. It loses its power when we stop being amazed by it. Jesus came close. And He invites us to see Him again with fresh eyes, renewed wonder, and a heart that remembers why He came at all.
