Have you ever received a gift you didn’t want? What about when God gives you something unexpected—His favor, but not in the way you imagined? Often, what we desire doesn’t align with what God has planned for us. We ask for blessings, expecting them to look a certain way, but God’s gifts often come with a purpose that’s beyond our understanding. If we don’t learn to view His blessings through His perspective, we might miss the deeper work He’s doing in our lives.
‘Tis The Season to Be Loving
December 8, 2024 • Chase Snyder • John 3:16, 1 John 4:7–16, John 13:34–35
Amid the busyness of the Christmas season, it's easy to get caught up in traditions, decorations, and the pursuit of the perfect holiday experience. While these activities bring joy and connection, they can sometimes distract us from the deeper truth of our faith. True redemption—the kind our souls deeply long for—cannot be found in the season's trappings but comes only through God. This Christmas, let us refocus our hearts on the redemptive gift of Jesus Christ, the reason for our hope and salvation.
'Tis The Season to be Joyful
December 1, 2024 • Chase Snyder • Luke 2:1–20
The arrival of Jesus on that first Christmas changed history and it changes the eternity of those who believe. Because of our relationship with Jesus, we now get to experience some of heaven on earth. Our lives don’t always feel like heaven on earth though. Christmas is a busy season that can fly by in an instant. In the rush of shopping, family gatherings, and Christmas parties, this sermon series’ goal is to refocus us on the hope we have in Jesus.
