As we get out the Christmas lights, ornaments and tinsel to decorate our homes this year, many of us are relieved that Christmas will feel a bit more “normal” this year. As we prepare to gather with friends and family to celebrate the birth of Jesus, let us prepare in mind, body, spirit, and space: by Decking the Halls (and our lives) with what matters most: the hope, peace, joy, and love of God.

God provides joy in unexpected ways through unexpected means, people, and places.

In this message of the week from December 12th, Pastor Jen Tyler shares from the book of Luke, chapter 1, and the story of Mary’s joyous response to the good news of the coming savior.
