On the first three Sundays of Advent, beginning on December 3rd, we will examine how Christ’s birth changed the entire course of history. We even separate history according to Jesus’ birth (B.C. to A.D.)! Our sermon series called “The Line” uses passages from scripture that don’t normally fill an Advent calendar to show how Jesus changed the world by entering history as the God-man, and He can change our lives as well.

The last Sunday of Advent is Christmas Eve. In the morning, we will have one service at 9:30 am. At this service we will sing carols and have members share testimonies of how they have seen God in their lives.

Later that day, under the theme, “The Wonder of Christmas”, we will have our usual Christmas Eve schedule of services: 3:00 pm, 7:00 pm, and 10:30 pm. At these services, we will explore the power of the incarnation of God in Jesus and the importance of God dwelling with a broken humanity to bring about redemption. 

On New Year’s Eve, we will have our normal Sunday morning services (8:30 am & 10:30 am). The topic will be “Living Stones: Look Back, Looking Forward”. We will look at Joshua 4, where the Israelites cross the Jordan River into the promised land and set up twelve memorial stones. As the Israelites did, we will look back to remember God’s faithfulness in the past year, and then look forward to consider how we can trust him this coming year.
