Epiphany marks the moment when God’s love was revealed to the world through Jesus Christ, as the Magi followed a star to the Christ child. It is the story of God’s light shining in the darkness and making God known to all people.

In this sermon, we invite you to worship with us as we explore what it means to live a legacy of light. The Magi were guided by the star to Jesus, but their journey didn’t end there. After encountering Christ, they returned home changed, carrying the story and the light with them.

Epiphany reminds us that Christ is the Light of the World and that light is meant to be shared. There is no better way to begin a new year than by discovering how Christ’s light can shape our lives, our choices, and the legacy we leave behind.

Following Jesus is serious work. But have you ever met someone who seems to take themselves way too seriously in the process? In all their religiosity, there’s no laughter, no whimsy, no joy—just a rigid seriousness they assume God must clearly require for approval.

Churches do this, too. Sometimes, in the name of reverence, we create environments with no room for passion and emotion. Just keep your head down and be quiet. God can't possibly want you to celebrate. Given how many times we see the word "rejoice" in our Scriptures, I've often wondered why we repress—or never even realize—the power of joy in our lives. Thankfully, joy is one of the four themes of Advent. 

This week, we'll take a look at what it means to embrace one of God's greatest gifts to humanity.

Got any storms in your life? Of course you do. This world is full of chaos and turbulence—unexpected waves that crash into our plans, sudden winds that shake our confidence, and silent pressures that weigh on our hearts. Sometimes that chaos rises from within us. And sometimes that chaos originates in the world around us. If only we could find some peace.

Christmas reminds us that God sees our storms. God knows our chaos and cares deeply about guiding us into peace. The miracle of Christmas is not just that Christ came into the world—it’s that he came into our world with all its mess, noise, and struggle. Peace didn’t wait for the world to quiet down; peace stepped into the noise. And the good news is, peace is closer than we think. On this second Sunday of Advent, we will dive deeper into how to find that peace that is closer than we think.

As we begin this Advent season, many of us carry places in our lives that feel hidden, heavy, or dim. We don’t always name them out loud—pride, resentment, fear, exhaustion, comparison, old wounds that still ache—but they quietly shape how we see the world and how we experience God.

In this sermon, we’ll explore a hope far deeper than optimism or holiday cheer. In John 1:1-9, we’re reminded that Christ is the Light that shines in every dark place, and no darkness can overcome it.

If there are places in your life that feel discouraged, uncertain, or dimly lit, the hope is that this message is impactful. We’ll discover together how the light of Christ can reach even the hidden places of our hearts and bring a hope that is steady, faithful, and life-giving.

Thanksgiving is a time for abundant activity. And for many, one of the more common activities is getting together with THOSE PEOPLE. You know what I mean—THOSE PEOPLE—the ones you don't get along with, agree with, or even enjoy being around.

The good news is, being around those people doesn't have to be a bad experience. In fact, Jesus gives us a pretty good model for being around people who were nothing like him. So whether it's during Thanksgiving—or any other day—if you struggle with those people, you'll want to hear this message.

I am my own worst enemy! Have you ever felt that way about yourself? Maybe in one of those moments when you end up somewhere you really don't want to be because you've done something you really didn't want to do, but you did it anyway.

We all have moments when we realize that we are solely responsible for a decision that we've made. But we're not alone. As we conclude our look at David in 1 & 2 Samuel, we'll talk about one more lesson from the Great King that might just be helpful.
