The Heart of Christmas | Christmas Eve Service

Ugly Christmas sweater parties, holiday work events, gifts under the tree, meals around the table, family spending time together, hopes of winter-ish weather, etc…

These certainly play a part in the most wonderful time of year, but we know that something else is at the heart of the Christmas season.

Buried underneath the busyness of the holiday season is the reason we celebrate. The Heart of Christmas is a four-week-Advent series centered on the story of Christ’s birth and His heart for you and for the world.

Hope. Peace. Joy. Love.

From the prophetic promise of His coming to His miraculous arrival, the advent themes of hope, peace, joy and love will help you prepare for Christmas by getting to the heart of the holiday.
