Creating a church where we experience the love of Christ helps us discover life in Him.

When we repent, we prepare our lives for the work of Jesus.

When Jesus is born, a Savior came to deliver us from our fear and into His family. 

Jesus sacrificial work on the cross creates peace in our relationship with the Lord and calls us to be peacemakers in a fallen world.

As Jesus is the great redeemer, he undoes all that is broken, unjust, and sinful, bringing about eternal joy for those who believe. 

The arrival of Jesus in this world is the arrival of love amid our fears, and the hope of Christmas means there is no fear in love. 

When we talk about Christmas, we’re not talking about some trite event with a helpless baby in a manger with cute barn animals…we’re talking about God planting physical feet on this earth and being with us. It is because of this miracle that we can have true hope.

Even through difficult trials, we can still cultivate a discipline of gratitude through focusing our lives on the hope of Jesus Christ.

To strengthen the practice of gratitude, we must close the gap between the kindness experienced and the expression of gratefulness. 

Gratefulness to Christ for all that He has done leads us to be content with our situation and rejoice In others' blessings.
