Unexpected Joy

December 29, 2019 • Pastor Terry Brown

Each year, many of us count the days until Christmas. We have advent calendars and busy schedules filled with special activities. But then, after Christmas is over, we may find ourselves sad and disappointed. In reality, Christmas isn’t an end, but a BEGINNING! Everything changed because of Christmas and God is changing those who come to Him still today! NEXT STEPS: - My plans have changed and I am facing unexpected joy, but I will rejoice! - My plans have changed and I am facing unexpected sorrow, but I will trust Him! - Jesus, I ask You that let me know You are near to me, whatever the circumstance.

Unfulfilled Expectations

December 8, 2019 • Pastor Rick Lorimer

This week we kicked off a new series, Picture Perfect Christmas, and talked about unfulfilled expectations and desires.

NEXT STEPS: • This week, I will reflect on the unfulfilled expectations in my life that have caused me to doubt God’s plan in my life. • Each day this week, I will pray, asking God to use me as a culture carrier of life this holiday season. • I will invite someone to one of the upcoming Christmas services at Christ Place Church. http://www.christplace.church/christmas.
