Rejoice, for the Word Has Come to Dwell Among Us!

Christmas is the celebration of God drawing near. In Jesus, the Word became flesh, stepping into our broken world to bring redemption, hope, and life. The miracle of Christmas isn’t just that Christ came—it’s that He came for you, to make you His and to restore what was lost. He changes everything, offering peace and joy that no circumstance can take away.

Today, celebrate the wonder of Christ’s birth with a heart full of gratitude. Reflect on the depth of God’s love in sending His Son, and be fill with joy and purpose. The Savior has come, and because of Him, you are never the same.

"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth."
— John 1:14
