Receive the Gift of Christmas

Founding Pastor Ken Werlein shares a special Christmas Eve message from Matthew, reminding us that the virgin Mary bore a son and called him Immanuel – God with us. What a gift God gave us to freely receive — Jesus Christ, the Son of God, sent to dwell among us and give us the gift of life.

December 17, 2023 • Da
Bible Teacher Dan Slagle reminds us that forgiveness is something we need to practice - giving and receiving. It’s one of the purest acts of grace we can experience and once we have received forgiveness there’s really only one appropriate response: to forgive as we have been forgiven.
The Humility of Jesus
December 10, 2023 • Lizi Bailey
Worship Pastor Lizi Bailey reminds us that pursuing humility lets us live in truth. Pride deceives us, but true humility - not thinking less of ourselves, but thinking of ourselves less - positions us to receive from Jesus. Humility keeps us open to God and others.
