Merry Christmas! We hope with your friends and family you were able to form new holiday memories, even with the changes and health precautions of 2020.

In this sermon we’re looking at journeys and the faith of sojourners. Journeys were a central part of the Christmas story. Before Jesus was born, his parents journeyed 90 miles or 150 kilometers from Nazareth to Bethlehem. And when Jesus turned one, his parents fled Bethlehem to the country of Egypt where they waited until it was safe, and then journeyed back to Galilee in Nazareth where Jesus grew up.

Every year is really a journey by faith, with things to remember, things to forget, and things to anticipate in the year to come. So as we journey from 2020 to 2021, we’re going to look at Abraham’s journey of faith, how he found identity and perspective in God’s promises.

Read Hebrews 11:1-16 as we get ready for this sermon!
