Hope

Chris Wall • Luke 1:1-4

The Christmas message is not a “once upon a time in a land ‘far’ ‘far’ away”. The Christmas story is not just speculative legend; it is true. In fact, because the Christmas story is an event in history, it confirms that fellowship with God is possible. Christmas reveals the literal incarnation of God. Incarnation describes the supernatural act of God the Son taking on a human nature. This supernatural event shows us that fellowship with God is possible for you and me. Salvation has really been made available to us. Today, we are beginning the Christmas season by unwrapping the gift of HOPE The gift of Christmas is not just about a baby in a manger—it’s about the transforming hope that changes lives, beginning with people like Luke and continuing in us today.
