Mary’s devotion to God is clear from her response to the news that she would be the mother of God’s Son. Her devotion was innocent, obedient, and humble.
The Face of Devotion
December 4, 2022 • Jimmy Martin • Luke 1:34–56
The Coming of Love
December 24, 2022 • Steve Lyford • 1 John 4:7–12
On this final week of Advent, we light the candle of Love. Love is at the forefront of all the Bible. From Genesis all the way to Revelation, we can see the story of God's love made manifest within His Son, Jesus. God's story has always been about Love; our story should reflect the same. This Christmas season, remind yourself to show love, God's Love, to all those that you see.
The Face of Tragedy and Triumph
December 18, 2022 • Jimmy Martin • Matthew 2:1–12, Matthew 2:16–17
Our response to Christ’s coming reveal our character. Tragically, Herod was disturbed and dishonest with the news Jesus' birth. In the end, trying to defeat his rival king, he only destroys himself. Triumphantly, the Magi searched for this long expected king. They came, saw, and worshiped this newborn Lord of all.
