Continuing with our Christmas series “Journey to The King”, today Pastor Jodi teaches on “LOVE.” Over 100 million songs have been written about love in its various forms. Humans are on a constant quest to discover not only what love means, but also how to obtain it. In our life’s journey, there is truly only one source of real, legitimate, and true love, and that is found in the baby born in the manger who was the King of all Kings. He is holy, and He is love. This Christmas, we have the opportunity to be enveloped and changed by the best gift we could ever receive: the gift of LOVE.

Continuing with our Christmas series “Journey to The King”, today Pastor Jodi teaches on the shepherds. When Jesus was born, the shepherds were the first to learn of the birth of the long-awaited Savior of the world. The shepherds were lowly, despised, and seemingly insignificant in their culture, yet the Lord chose them to bring the most amazing message of all time! No matter who we are, and what we believe about ourselves, we, too, are chosen to bring this same message to a lost and broken world.
