Unhappy Holidays

Revelation 12:1-6

December 18, 2022 • Dr. Joe Martin • Revelation 12:1–6

Despite the festive red cups at the coffee shops, the pretty twinkling lights everywhere, and the bright and cheerful holiday music, this time of year is excruciatingly painful for so many.


Wherever we look in the New Testament, the story of Christmas is linked to danger and to the ancient conflict between good and evil.


Join Pastor Joe as he shows how Revelation 12:1-6 tells us about Christmas, and how it also tells us God’s plan for daily living in the midst of turmoil.
