This year is a Christmas like none in modern memory. If we try to compare it to holidays past it can be easy to become discouraged by what it seems has been taken from us. We can let these things that seemed at one time so important distract us from what Christmas is truly about as well as the things that can never be stolen from us. Scripture tells that no matter what, there are things that abide. Over the next few weeks, we are going to consider 3 things that can never be taken from us this Christmas, beginning with our faith.

Background: After calling the Roman believers to become “living sacrifices” at the beginning of the chapter, the apostle Paul then moves on to challenge them regarding how they are supposed to live that out. He exhorts them to consider the use of the “gifts” that they have received, as well as their “source”. Tonight, we will be looking at one of the greatest gifts we can receive, as well as 3 reasons that gift can never be stolen from us.

Big Idea: 3 reasons our faith cannot be taken this Christmas (Romans 12:3-8)
