⭐ Continue the Journey With Us
As we celebrate the Christmas season together, we’re also walking through our current sermon series, The Journey of Christmas. Throughout Scripture, the story of the first Christmas is filled with movement—Mary visiting Elizabeth, Mary and Joseph traveling to Bethlehem, shepherds hurrying from the fields, and Magi crossing nations in search of a newborn King.
This December, we’re following their footsteps. Each week, we’re exploring the sacred paths that led ordinary people straight to the wonder of the manger—and discovering how God is still leading us today. No matter where you’re coming from or what road you’re on, we invite you to journey with us toward the peace, hope, and wonder found in Jesus.
