Freedom and healing come in life when we are able to be real, lean on each other and rely on God.

When I'm real with God (and myself) and wrestle through my fears and flaws, I can finally become the real person God created me to be.

Kindness is the secret sauce that can transform a relationship, bridging gaps and differences and allowing us to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

We grow more steadily as we choose to share life with whoever Jesus brings into our lives, and not just those who are most like us.

Jesus modeled having a heart centered on God rather than the world, by making spiritual disciplines like prayer a natural part of day-to-day life.

Jesus values fellowship, because it is in those moments that life is enjoyed and relationships are built to see us through tough times.

Joseph saw Jesus as a child to commit his life to, even though it was hard.

Mary saw in Jesus a new life to embrace expectantly. Do you?

The shepherds saw Jesus as a savior to be sought out and shared with others.

Herod saw Jesus as a threat to be mitigated. Do you? Who is the focal point of your life?
