This week we explore the deeply personal question, “How can a good God allow bad things to happen?” through Scripture and real-life faith struggles. It explains how free will, sin, and suffering exist in a broken world, while showing how God brings redemption and hope through Jesus. We are encouraged to look to the cross, cling to a living hope, and trust that trials refine faith and will one day be fully redeemed.

This week we explore agape love through the Christmas story, showing that love is a commanded choice rooted in humility, sacrifice, and action. Jesus—the Lamb of God—chose the manger and the cross, proving that true love serves the unworthy, seeks others’ good, and expects nothing in return. Because we have received this kind of love from God, we are called to reflect it intentionally in our relationships and everyday lives.

This week we explore the real Christmas story—messy, dangerous, deeply human, yet overflowing with hope, peace, love, and JOY. Walking through the angels, shepherds, and the birth of Jesus, we see that God is in control and His plan is always good, even in uncertainty. Discover how true joy is a filling from God—beyond circumstances—and how we live it out by learning to SLOW down: Seek, Listen, Obey, and Walk with Him.
