A new year is about to begin and we all know what that means: Resolutions… and their subsequent disintegration. Here’s an idea – how about we make this year different? Let’s make our resolutions last longer than our excuses. Let’s not get overwhelmed by our end goal that we forget all the small victories that […]

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing captures the jubilation of Christmas. Reconciliation, hope, peace, and redemption bring forth an unstoppable expression of joy. You may not know all the words to this carol, but this Christmas we hope you can feel the excitement and assurance that this song promises in the birth of the newborn King.

O Holy Night is a song that slows down the tempo of Christmas and helps us to reflect on the meaning behind the celebration. This song brings us back to that one holy night that started it all and reminds us of the “thrill of hope” that came into the world in that moment and […]
