”“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us). When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him: he took his wife, but knew her not until she had given birth to a son. And he called his name Jesus.“

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭1‬:‭23‬-‭25‬ ‭ESV‬‬

In the quiet stillness of Christmas, we turn our gaze to the humble manger in Bethlehem, where a miracle unfolded centuries ago! The story of Jesus' birth resonates through time!

But it’s more than just a story…it’s the truth! Jesus is the way, the truth & the life!

As carols echo the angels proclamations, let's reflect on the profound meaning of this sacred season. Jesus, the embodiment of love, entered the world to bring salvation & light to our lives!

Amidst the festive hustle around us, let's be still & center our hearts on the true meaning of Christmas.

In the exchange of presents, let’s not forget the ultimate gift: the great exchange where the birth of our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ, was so that He could exchange places with us & gift us with eternal life!

This Christmas, may the Spirit of Jesus infuse our celebrations with a profound gratefulness, joy & peace.

Family & friends,

How do we have the Heart of Christmas?

By knowing the Heart of Christmas…Jesus Christ!

Merry Christmas to all!
