Emmanuel, “God with us.” The Christmas season is meant to be filled we joy. But in a busy and complicated world, you may instead find yourself struggling with emotions of sadness, confusion, frustration, shock, fear, uncertainty, distraction. While the birth of Jesus is the most wonderful story told, it's easy to forget that many of the characters in this story were struggling with these same emotions. In this message, Jeff Fritsche reminds us that our hope, our joy, our peace are ONLY found in looking to God and the gift of His Son. Nothing else will satisfy us. You'll be challenged to make room to abide in Christ this Christmas season.

Are you an agent of pain or an agent of peace? God's original design did not include anxiety and pain, but the Enemy works through our human-built systems of secularism, consumerism, and individualism to bring pain into our life and the lives of those around us. In this message, Caleb Panter reminds us that because of Jesus, we can be agents of PEACE, to spread His presence throughout the whole world. You'll be challenged to consider what human-built systems you're leaning on that are actually producing anxiety and pain, and to instead live empowered by the Holy Spirit—God IN us.
