Rediscover Christmas

Beginning December 1, our 4-week sermon series, Rediscover Christmas, encourages us to recapture our holiday spirit through God's Word. Topics each week include:

​

  • Find Hope in Our Uncertainties

  • Find Joy in Our Discouragements

  • Find Peace in Our Struggles

  • Find Love in Our Differences

    Note that because our Christmas Cantata will be held on December 22, Pastor Tony will release a special video devotional on Facebook and YouTube covering this final topic.
