ABOUT THIS MESSAGE

Christmas time, while all about gift giving and getting, is ultimately a time when we remember that God gave us his very best gift over 2000 years ago when he sent his son Jesus. He did it with joy - and he did it for you.

With that in mind, this year, what if we decided to joyfully give God the best gift this Christmas? What would that even look like? Let’s talk about it.
