Christmas Eve Service
This Christmas season, we’re exploring the opening lines of Matthew’s Gospel, where he begins the story of Jesus with a genealogy—a list of names that might seem tedious at first glance but holds profound meaning.
Matthew carefully traces Jesus’ lineage back to Abraham and David, reminding us that Jesus fulfills God’s promises of an eternal kingdom and a blessing for all nations. Yet, what’s truly remarkable is the inclusion of five women in this genealogy: Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary. Each of these women had unique stories marked by being disregarded, entrapped, destitute, victimized, or simply humble.
Why does God highlight these individuals? To show us that His family is not built on earthly status, power, or perfection but on His grace. Through this genealogy, we see that God intentionally chooses the broken, the overlooked, and the ordinary to accomplish His extraordinary purposes.
This message of hope is for all of us. No matter where you’ve been or what you’ve faced, God invites you into His family through Jesus Christ, who came to redeem and restore. Join us as we celebrate the beauty of God’s grace revealed in the most unexpected places.

Pastor John closes his letter pointing his dear children to his purpose for writing: that they may know that they have eternal life. He desires that they would live lives that reflect confidence in prayer, confidence in relationships and confidence in a secure future because they are confident in the One who IS eternal life. By knowing that we are in Him we too can walk in truth and confidence.
In 1 John 5:5-12, the apostle John highlights the powerful testimony about Jesus, confirmed by the Spirit, the water, and the blood, pointing to Him as the Son of God and the source of eternal life. John urges us to accept this divine witness as greater than any human testimony, grounding our faith in God’s own declaration about His Son. As believers, we are called to live confidently, assured that through Jesus, we hold the gift of eternal life.
In 1 John 4:13-5:4 we find assurance that God's Spirit lives within us, affirming His love and our relationship with Him. This passage calls us into a life defined by His love—a love so powerful that it drives out fear, filling us with confidence before God. John explains that, as believers, we are born of God and therefore equipped to overcome the world, not through our strength but through faith in Christ.
