04 | Emmanuel God’s Glory Revealed

December 22, 2024 • Mark Helvadjian • Isaiah 9:2, Luke 2:8–20

Have you ever wondered how God chooses to reveal His plans and glory to the world? In this talk from our Christmas series, we explore the profound truth that God often works through the unexpected. Through the story of the shepherds—the first to hear the announcement of Jesus' birth—we see how God’s grace reaches the outcasts,

His glory is revealed beyond the temple, and His message inspires a response of worship and bold proclamation. This Christmas, we are reminded that God meets us where we are and calls us to share His light with the world.

More from Into the Darkness – Emmanuel, God with us.

3 | The Gift of Waiting

December 15, 2024 • Mark Helvadjian

Have you ever felt stuck in a season of waiting, wondering if God is working? In this talk from our Christmas series, we reflect on the truth that God’s timing is always perfect. Through the story of Simeon, Anna, and the 400 years of silence before Jesus’ birth, we see how waiting can deepen our trust, refine our character, and prepare us for God’s greater plans. This Christmas, we are reminded that even in our waiting, God is at work, aligning His purposes and preparing us for His light to break through the darkness.

02 | Emmanuel - God with Us.

December 8, 2024 • Mark Helvadjian

Have you ever felt alone or distant from God? As we continue in our Christmas Talk Series, we reflect on the powerful truth of Emmanuel, meaning "God with us," revealed through the birth of Jesus Christ. His birth shows that God chose to enter our world, bringing comfort and hope in our struggles. His presence transforms us, offering peace and assurance. This Christmas, we are reminded that God is with us today, and one day, we will be with Him forever.

01 | The promise of Light

December 1, 2024 • Mark Helvadjian

As we enter the Christmas season, we see lights all around us breaking into the darkness of winter. But does this symbolise something more than just decoration at Christmas time? Over 2,000 years ago the promised saviour of the world came into the darkness to bring light to the earth, an arrival which would change the course of history for ever.
