"I've Lost the Joy of Christmas: Money" | Sermon on Finding True Joy Beyond Materialism

‌

In this sermon, Pastor Ryan kicks off a 3-part Christmas series titled "I've Lost the Joy of Christmas." This first message dives into the impact of money and consumerism during the holiday season. While Christmas is meant to be a time of celebration and joy, many of us feel burdened by the pressure to spend on gifts, decorations, and extravagant celebrations.

Learn how to reclaim the joy of the season by prioritizing relationships, generosity, and faith over materialism.
