The Call of Christmas series is more than just the story of Jesus’ arrival. Through the stories of Zechariah, Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds, we’re each given a call to prepare, a call to provide, a call to protect, and a call to praise. All pointed to the celebration of Advent and the arrival of Jesus Christ .
Who would’ve thought that a dream could be reality? This week we're looking at the role Joseph discovers he will play in the story of Emmanuel. Once again lives are forever changed when an angel visits, this time in a dream (actually Joseph has several) with a call to protect. The Messiah is coming and Joseph gets to be part of this story—a story that is now a part of us.

Are you willing to provide a space for God to take up residence in your life? This week we look at how Jesus' mother Mary responded as she believed in words from the angel Gabriel to carry the baby that would bring salvation to the world. Her response can be a game changer for anyone who is willing to make the space for God to work.

Thankfulness is an important character quality to display. You can move to be a more thankful person regardless of your current situation.
You may not always be able to change your circumstances, but you can change your attitude. The more you can pause your life and consider how/why you’re thankful, the more you’re on your way to being a thankful person.
What are you thankful for?

When we find life...we find a great faith. When followers of Jesus choose to “lose” earthly lives, sacrificing their comfort and safety in this world, they find true life in Jesus Christ.
Today, our persecuted Christian brothers and sisters are finding life that counts for eternity at the cost of harassment, imprisonment and even death. This weeks message looks at the life of Sabina and Richard Wurmbrand who faithfully advanced the gospel in Romania, abandoning selfish pursuits and obediently surrendering daily to Christ.
Following their decades-long ministry work, Sabina and Richard co-founded The Voice of the Martyrs. We pray for our persecuted Christian family members who choose to walk this path in obedience to Christ. Like Sabina and Richard Wurmbrand, and countless others throughout church history, they are examples for us.

When we see the world’s current events through the lens of the Old Testament book of Chronicles we can learn much. God’s people need to learn to remain strong in the face of adversity, hope-filled in the midst of scarcity, and determined in the face of opposition.
This is the final installment in our series and we learn the answer to the question: Why does Ezra tell us this story? Ezra wants us to know what God does for faithful followers. We also learn the importance of Scripture and that God wants us to know the potential of children.

This week is our 5th installment and we are looking at the story of the war in heaven and of relationships on earth. It's about how what seems and what is aren't always the same. The God of the Bible is the God of good news.
