Message for Sunday, December 17th

The story of Christmas is that Jesus is the source of true joy! As one writer said, “He has come for us, for us. He’s come—amazingly, shockingly—because he loves us. That’s the startling joy of Christmas.” (Finding Christmas – James Calvin Schaap)

What would it look like for you to have a more Joy-FULL life?

Key Verse

Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 5:18
