Each year during Christmas, we remember and retell the old old story of Jesus’ birth.  It is the greatest story ever told.  Hidden within the story of Jesus’ birth are other inspiring stories that remind us who Jesus is, why He came, and what He wants to do for us.  Let these stories impact your story this Christmas!

Jesus is God's Son
December 1st, 2024
The birth of Jesus, as described in Matthew 1:18-25, is a story rich with meaning and relevance for modern Christians. This passage focuses on Joseph’s reaction to Mary’s unexpected pregnancy, his internal struggle, and the divine revelation that leads him to embrace God’s plan. For Christians today, Joseph’s response offers important lessons in faith, obedience, and trust, especially when life ta...
Jesus is Lord.

The story of Jesus’ birth is a moment in history that changed history and still inspires us to live God-pleasing lives today because of who Jesus is. In Luke 1:39-56, we see Mary visiting her cousin Elizabeth shortly after the angel Gabriel announces that she will give birth to Jesus. This passage offers rich lessons in faith, joy, and trust in God’s promises. It reveals the importance of communit...
Jesus is coming.
December 1st, 2024
The birth of Jesus announced to Mary in Luke 1:26-38, is one of the most profound moments in Scripture. The angel Gabriel's visit to a young, humble woman in Nazareth, with the astonishing news that she would bear the Son of God, marks the beginning of God’s redemptive plan coming to fruition. For you and me, this passage offers timeless lessons in faith, humility, and the willingness to trust God...

5 MEMORY MAKING TRADITIONS FOR FAMILIES

So much of the holiday season is rushing and waiting. We rush to decorate, buy gifts, attend parties, and see family. We wait for the cookies to bake, Santa to arrive, and a comforting return to normalcy. In the midst of it all, it’s easy to forget to help our kids understand what makes this season important: spending time with loved ones and reflecting on the amazing gift of Jesus.  The best present you could ever give is your presence. Here are five ways to make quality memories with your family this season.

READ THE CHRISTMAS STORY TOGETHER

Turn off the lights and read the Christmas story from Luke 1-2:38 by the light of the Christmas tree. If you have a house with younger kids, you could even use characters from a Nativity scene to act out the story. 

MAKE A HOLIDAY BREAKFAST FOR DINNER

Turn your pancakes into snowmen with chocolate chip faces and bacon scarves or make your seasonal French toast casserole. Holiday meals give your family members something to look forward to each year. 

SERVE THOSE WHO SERVE YOU

Leave bagged holiday snacks and drinks at your doorstep for the delivery people who show up all season. Make a festive sign to say “thank you!” 

COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS

Have each family member choose a cookie cutter or ornament that represents something good God has done for them this year. Then, decorate the tree or bake and decorate a batch of cut-out cookies. 

RETELL THE STORY

At bedtime, share the story of each of your kid’s birth or arrival in the family.  Tell them of your excitement and joy just as the shepherds and wise men were amazed at the birth of Jesus.
