TAKING CHRISTMAS OUT OF CHRIST
Advent Week 1: Mary & Joseph (Pastor Dan)

“They’re trying to take Christ out of Christmas!” If you’ve turned on cable news or been on Facebook, that’s a refrain you’ve probably heard at some point over the past decade. There is a growing concern that our culture is trying to remove “the reason” for the season. There is a constant worry that stores or businesses or even the government is trying to remove Jesus from the the Christmas celebration.

But have we ever stopped and wondered if the opposite is true? Have we become so consumed with the Christmas celebration — the gifts and lights and 12-feet tall inflatable Santas — that we have forgotten the humble beginnings of it all? That’s what this series is about — removing Christmas from Christ.

Forgetting the stressful trips to the mall and anxious-inducing family gatherings and remembering where it all began — a manger in Palestine. Join us as we set aside the gifts, turn off the lights, and deflate the Santas just long enough to remember Mary and Joseph, the shepherds, the wisemen, and, of course, Jesus.
