A Series on the birth of Jesus
Grab your sandals, sunblock, and swim gear because it’s time for a Christmas Vacation! We’ll be making sand angels
and roasting chestnuts around an open bonfire on our tropical getaway. You’ve never experienced Christmas like this!
In this series, we’ll focus on the birth of Jesus and the way God had been planning things from the very beginning.
We’ll see how God sent Jesus for a reason, learn to trust God’s timing, understand why God gives us what’s best,
and see how Jesus is why we celebrate because Jesus is God’s gift to the world.

The Good News Of Jesus Is For All People
In this Christmas series called For All People, we’ll be focusing on the good news of Christmas: the birth of Jesus that really is Good News of great joy that is . . . well, for all people! Together, we’ll look at the way Jesus’ arrival made joy possible for any and all of us in any and all circumstances, both thousands of years ago when He arrived and even still today! As we dive in, we’ll see that the thing that makes Christmas so great isn’t the stuff we get or the things we do; it’s about the God who invites us to take hold of the Good News of great joy that really is for all of us.
Monthly Verse:
“Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth
peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
Luke 2:14
Our #1 Parenting Resource:
Parenting isn't the big moments, it's every moment.
- Every parent has 936 weeks of influence from the time their child is born until they graduate.
- Your child spends 1 hour per week at church and 167 hours per week away from church.
- Those can be a daunting numbers, but meaningful faith moments don't just happen at church. Meaningful faith moments with your family can fit seamlessly into the daily rhythm of your life.
- We want to join you in the journey of learning how to make faith a part of your daily routine by being a constant presence with your kids in Next Gen, by teaching them Gospel truths, and by equipping you to do the same the other 167 hours of the week!
