Circle of Trust (COT):

  • Christmas is about a lot more than presents, lights, or even family traditions – though those are great. At its core, Christmas is the celebration of Jesus. The King of the universe left heaven, became a helpless baby, lived a perfect life, and ultimately gave Himself up on the cross so we could be reconciled to God. That’s the ultimate gift: grace we didn’t earn, love we don’t deserve. That gift changes everything – and it ties straight into why we’re out here this morning in the cold with our brothers.
  • So thank you for posting this morning. You made someone else’s Christmas brighter just by being here.
