The Way of Hope

December 15, 2024 • Scott Kelly

In Part 2 of "Jesus: The Way in a Manger", Pastor Scott invites us to reflect on the profound difference between worldly hope and the eternal hope found in Christ. Drawing from Scripture and the Christmas story, he explains that while everyday hope is often mere wishful thinking, true hope is a confident assurance rooted in the promises of God.

The Way of Love

December 22, 2024 • Dr. John Hull

In a world where love is often reduced to fleeting emotions, Christ offers a countercultural truth: love is not merely a feeling; it is a deliberate decision. This profound message, drawn from John 15:12-17, invites us to reflect on the transformative power of agape love—the selfless, sacrificial love that mirrors Christ’s love for us.

The Way of Faith

December 8, 2024 • Dr. John Hull

Christmas reveals the ultimate gift of God’s grace: Jesus Christ, born to make a way for us to experience true, dynamic faith. This week, we explore James 2:14-26 and what it means to have a faith that lives, acts, and transforms. Faith without action is dead, but faith coupled with deeds is the evidence of a life surrendered to Christ.
