Christmas According to the Angels

December 24, 2024 • Pastor Matt Horne • Luke 2:13–14

How would Heaven tell the story of Christmas? The Angels gave a report that very evening, declaring what was to come long before anything had even taken place. At the heart of it all was a promise of the one thing we all eagerly long for: peace.

Christmas According to The Wise Men

December 22, 2024 • Pastor Matt Horne • Matthew 2:1–12

Many people have long misunderstood the story of The Wise Men. They were kings of great riches and power, laying it all down in surrender to King Jesus. It’s no mistake that their story coincides with another man who refused to sacrifice his throne. However, more than worldly titles or positions, King Jesus’ primary desire is your heart.

Christmas According to The Shepherds

December 15, 2024 • Pastor Matt Horne • Luke 2:1–20

The first people on earth to ever behold Jesus were the meek and mild Shepherds. To their surprise, this Jesus was much the same. It’s a wonder that Jesus humbled himself, entered our world, became like us, and later claimed to be a Shepherd himself.

Christmas According to Joseph

December 8, 2024 • Pastor Matt Horne • Matthew 1:18–25

What do you do when life doesn’t make sense? This is the question Joseph was asking. His story is certainly not all that relatable, but from his experience, we can understand what it means to trust and obey during great confusion. More than that, we see how God meets us in the middle of it. Matthew 1:18-25 - Christmas According to Joseph

Christmas According to Mary

December 1, 2024 • Pastor Matt Horne • Luke 1:26–38

Mary, did you know? Aside from Jesus, Mary is the most intriguing and captivating character in the Christmas narrative. History and tradition have suggested a lot about Mary, but when we learn the truth about her story and who she was, we learn a profound lesson about what it means to lay our lives down to serve God. Luke 1:26-38 - Christmas According to Mary
