Jesus Came to Light Up Your Life

The Christmas season is filled with beautiful lights that fill our homes, neighborhoods, and communities. But light also played a big part that first Christmas, when an angel of the Lord announced the birth of Jesus to shepherds at night and “the glory of the Lord shone around them” (Luke 2:9 NIV). In this message series, Pastor Rick explores the many ways the good news of Jesus continues to shine today, lighting up our lives with his love and forgiveness.
