In today's message, we dive into the very moment when ordinary shepherds first witness the extraordinary glory of God. Imagine being enveloped by the radiant light of His glory, a reflection of God's infinite love and power. This was not just a spiritual vision; it was an invitation to share the greatest news ever told. As the angels proclaimed the birth of Jesus, fear transformed into joy, and these humble shepherds became God's influencers. Join us as we explore how the angel's message moved God's glory from outside to inside their hearts, igniting a passion to spread His light to everyone. And we learn how Jesus will flood our hearts with this same glory, inspiring us to go and tell the world about Him!

The Christmas story is punctuated by those who proclaimed God is with us, for us, in us, and like us! But this didn't begin when the angels showed up to the shepherds. It started centuries before when the prophets declared the Messiah — the Christ — was coming. Today we're looking at what those prophets actually said, and how what they foretold came to be. And we're reminded that just "knowing" prophetic truths isn't what's important; what's critical is that our lives would be transformed by Jesus!

Have you ever tried to start a fire with just one piece of wood? It's hard to do! But when you build a fire with several pieces, it can be roaring in no time. This is much like our prayer lives. When we're praying together with other people of faith, God shows up in power.

Psalm 133:1–3 "How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! ... For there the Lord bestows his blessing...." God's blessing's flow where His family is operating together in unity. And united prayer is one of the ways we act on God's promise!

Today, Veronica Leach, President of Community of Prayer, shares from her recent prayer experiences in Washington DC and locally around Santa Maria. Then she shares a compelling vision for the power of united prayer.

Have you ever wondered why we need to pray? Especially if God already knows what we need, then what's the point? Today, we’re diving into the truth that prayer isn’t just wishful thinking — it’s an active demonstration of our faith in Jesus. And God is waiting for us to come to Him in prayer. His promise? "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you." Stop standing on the wrong side of a locked door. Grow in faith. Grow in prayer.
