Christmas Eve 2024 - Silent Night

Repeat the Sounding Joy

December 24, 2024 • Pastor Brent Warkentin

The night Jesus was born may not have been silent and maybe not so calm, but it was certainly holy, and it's great news for us today.

Joy To The World

December 22, 2024 • Pastor Brent Warkentin • Psalm 98:4–9, Genesis 3:17–18

This week Pastor Brent looks at the classic Christmas hymn, "Joy to the World." And while this is among the most popular Christmas songs, the original writer--Isaac Watts--intended this song to focus on Christ's *second* coming, not His first. Yes, Jesus came as a humble servant, but one day, He will return as a conquering King restoring the world to its intended peace.

O Holy Night

December 15, 2024 • Joe Skillen • Matthew 2:1–2, Luke 2:25–28

This week Pastor Joe uses the Christmas carol "O Holy Night" to remind us of our own personal worthiness. Flawed as we may be, true self-worth comes from an understanding of God's unconditional love. Because of Jesus, we can overcome shame and recognize our value, uniquely created in God's image.

Go Tell It On The Mountain

December 8, 2024 • Pastor Brent Warkentin • Luke 2

This week Pastor Brent shares a unique message based on the classic Christmas spiritual, "Go Tell It On the Mountain." Brent uses an imaginative, fictional first-person account to explore how the shepherds would have found the baby Jesus in Bethlehem. Just as the shepherds felt compelled to "go tell," we, too, have a responsibility to share the good news of Jesus' birth to those around us.
