The Heart of Christmas
Advent
The Heart of Christmas is Love
December 18, 2022 • Nathan Elizondo • Galatians 4:1–6, Ephesians 1:3–14, 1 Corinthians 13
God’s love is amazing. Out of his love and desire to save sinners, he sent Jesus to be born in to this world. He lived a perfect life, paid the price for our sin on the cross, and overcame death in his resurrection. Through Jesus alone, we have been justified before the Father, and adopted by him. As believers, we are no longer who we once were, but are new creatures though Christ.
Christmas Brings Joy All Every Circumstances
December 11, 2022 • Richard Cantu • John 1:14, Romans 5:8, Matthew 5:9
Happiness is often determined by our circumstances. When things are going well, it’s easy to be happy. Unfortunately, happiness often goes away quickly when we experience times of difficulty. However, Jesus was born to bring us everlasting joy. Because of Christmas, we can have joy that endures any circumstance or situation.
